Going back to Philly, and stopping by The Big Apple and also New Joisey

I promised I would post the photos from my trip back home to Philly, so here they are! These are not all of the photos I took, mind you, because I did take a lot and I know you don't have all day.

Also not shown here is the footage I took on film of some Philly street shots to use for my upcoming "Philly Made Me" music video). You'll get to see that soon enough!

Please enjoy these photos of sweet street art and heartwarming family moments.
















World Trade Center memorial overlooking the new skyscrapers being built.


Some people were building this structure as the sun set, it was beautiful. Photo not shopped, no filter either. Just gorgeously fading sunlight.




John Lennon memorial at Strawberry Fields in Central Park. I cried a little bit, so did my dad.


Me and my dad on our South Philly stoop.


Me and my mom.


My mom and my sister.


The "Highline Zoo."




This is hilarious. For the preying eyes on the Highline.




Lord Skippington, the Naughton Family cat (though he loves my mom the most).


Going-away goodie bag, including Audrey Hepburn buttons and book about Mary Magdalene, from my dad. The Spongebob puppet looks like he's having a bit of a nose bleed.


My dad was really happy that I came home for Father's Day.


Some kid(?) posted a party invitation for his dad on their front door.


My Uncle Bob, Aunt Brenda, cousin Jenny, and my sisterb. Not a type, we call each other "sisterb." Inside joke.


Here it is, the most delicious banh mi (in this case, a tofu hoagie) on the planet, from Cafe Nhu Y. I ate two while I was in town, and one on the plane on the way home. Sooooo good.
