- Enjoy this front row seat at the 2022 Philadelphia 4th of July parade! For the first time in 2 years the parade is back! It's about 1/2 the size as normal due to pandemic bounce back. Many of the old time participants were just not present this year. NO worries. Just you wait until the summer of 2023! Tonight, I'll enjoy a massive fireworks display in the skies over the Philadelphia Museum of Art. Last night the Philadelphia Pops Orchestra gave a delightful concert in front of Independence Hall while we kicked back on blankets sampling wine and cheese. Almost all of the museums have been free for the past several days and it's good to see the city coming back to life! Thank YOU for joining me. Now drum roll please...........
Scott, I used to live in upstate New York and last year we went to Harriet Tubman’s grave in auburn , New York . I discovered that people left mementos there and I left a ring I loved. It wasn’t great in value but it meant a lot to me. I will be in Rochester, New York and Frederick Douglas is buried there and maybe Susan B Anthony. When I lived in upstate New York as a high schooler, I was never taught this history. It angers me, but a lot angers me lately. And so I share this for Americans who might want to pay tribute to people who fought so hard for values I believe in. God bless America and God please help this country I love.
Thanks for sharing Scott. I love AMERICA.
Thank you Scott for spending July 4th with us…have fun with family and friends 🇺🇸

Love it thanks for sharing I miss Chicago parades with my grams and Woolworths diner so fun
Nanette.. I hear you! My grandpa would give me some pocket money and my best friend would walk down the street to the little diner. We would have egg salad sandwiches and Green Rivers. 7-Up with green grenadine syrup pored in!!

Thanks for sharing Scott.❤💔🤍💙👏👏👏👏👏🍀💕
What an awesome video Scott! I loved it and it's so great to see the places we visited!
Glad you enjoyed it Dee!
Scott, we would love to visit Philadelphia! So much diversity and history. Your channel has a bit of everything too! That’s why we keep watching it.💕
Awesome! Thank you!
I’d love to visit Philly…
Thanks for sharing I really enjoyed watching ❤️❤️
Thank you for sharing the 4th in Philly! I live in the Sierra Nevada foothills & fireworks are verboten because of extreme fire danger. I love the diversity represented in the parade & find myself wishing that every citizen could embrace this diversity to make the US an even better place.
I totally agree, Laura! I simply could not live in a place that does not contain rich diversity!
Thank you Scott for sharing our wonderful Philadelphian 4th of July experience 👍🏻❤️ Happy holiday everyone! 🇺🇸🎆🎇
Thanks for sharing the parade.i enjoy your videos they are very creative and quite interesting. I live about a hour away in Jersey and have never been to the parade. I always wanted to take in the historical places 4th of July week but always thought it would be too crowded.
Oh Noreen....next year.....please come!!!!!!!
Unfortunately I had to skip through the parade. I used to be in the band, and for 20-25 years I get so choked up with tears & can hardly breath when the bands go by that I can't even watch the parades on TV, let alone our Annual Flower Festival Parade. I sometimes have trouble with the little parade for the Los Alamos Old Town Days when the little elementary kids go by wearing their straw hats, red bandanas, & cardboard horses. Uff da. ---Because my trip to Philly was primarily to see the Mutter Museum (and Antique Row, that turned out to be brick houses!) I never knew what all else I was likely to see. Being on foot, I missed a lot of scenic wonders. I surprisingly had no interest in seeing the Liberty Bell, but did return to see Franklin's grave (I got there too late in the day to go inside). The Constitutution Museum was a hit for me. Don't know where that excavation site was, but I wish I'd known about that, I would have stopped.
Thanks Scott enjoyed this alot I look forward to your videos always something interesting or unusual, your one of my favorite youtubers! Love to see what your up to next!
Thank you so much for filming this, Scott. Enjoyed it so much.
Philadelphia is my bucket list. I've been around the East coast, but haven't made it to Philly yet. Thanks for sharing the history!
Thank you Scott, I haven't been to a parade in years. Your city sure knows how to throw one, a mixture of cultures. Happy 4th to everyone, from a proud American🇺🇸🇺🇲🇺🇸 😊
Scott thanks for sharing your beautiful city, Happy 4th of July from Lima Peru 🇵🇪🇱🇷
Thank you in Lima Peru!
Thanks for filming the parade. I used to meet my friends at the Wanamaker Eagle. Couldn't go to the parade so thank you.
Wow, such a treat! Y'all are a melting pot, how wonderful! 👏🏻 How beautiful and graceful were the Japanese (?) ladies?! And I _live_ for the Colonial/Revolutionary/Civil War costumes! 🇺🇸 🔔 Oh my gosh, the Wannemaker organ is just outstanding and I'm sure it's *way* better in person. Can't help but think of Phantom of the Opera (or The Ghost and Mr. Chicken 😂) when I hear it! Thank you SO much for sharing! ❤️ 🤍 💙
I'm so blessed to live in such a rich multicultural city. Yes....we really are a melting pot. And you MUST come and hear the Wanamaker organ in person!
I was in this parade with the Sixers drum line 😎
You guys were awesome!!!
Thank you for helping me celebrate , dear Scott!
P.S. Heyyy, you got a Bug! I got a 76 Dodge Aspen that was pumpkin-orange and I NEVER lost it in a mall parking lot, even at Christmastime ;>
I totally liked the umbrellas. I did like the few drums they did have but did notice there werent many big honkin drums. Looks like you had a great view at the corner. Great weather.
I must have missed the other video where you showed the organ. That building is so cool to look at and the organ is so pretty.
My first car was a 1960 Volkswagen Bug, I rebuild the engine in 1987
Mucha emoción, la bandera de Uruguay!!!!!!
Hey! I'm in the video!!!! I'm the glockenspiel furthest from the person recording at 23:58
You did a great job!
Scott, this was absolutely beautiful!!! Thank you so much for letting us be a part of this celebration!
Do you love the architecture on those buildings. Old builds are fantasticating.
Very interesting! Happy 4th of July!
Y A Y !!!
Wonderful 👍
Thank you Scott
💥✨💥✨
Everyone from Philly will always call it the Wanamaker building.
You got that right pal!
I enjoyed that very much! Thank you Scott.
Aww....thank you so much! 😍
This has been wonderful to watch. I truly enjoyed it. 💥 🇺🇸 🎆
Thank you Scott!💕🇺🇲
Scott. Thank you so much for sharing !!! The rich cultures of Philadelphia are just amazing. Sooo glad to get to go back in Wanamaker’s to hear the pipe organ again. Happy Independence Day 🇺🇸❤️🤍💙🇺🇸
That was awesome Scott! Thanks so much.
That was a FANTASTIC tour Scotty! Thankyou so much for sharing 🤩❤
Thankyou, Scott. You are a great tour guide. Happy 4th of July!
Thanks for sharing Scott! I'm binge watching your channel :) since I'm a busy reseller, not a lot of time for videos.
Awesome! Thank you! I know the feeling. It's a real treat for me to take and hour and watch vides.
Thank you Scott for giving me a tour of my own Philadelphia and the parade that I have never attended. Hope you had a happy Fourth of July and that you had a delicious barbecue somewhere❤️🤍💙 The warmer suburbs girl here never went into Philadelphia unless it was on a school trip many moons ago💥
Gosh, I love a parade... Thank you...Scott for such a wonderful video.. Happy 4th Of July..
Thank you, Scott. I do love a marching band!
Thank you for sharing! Also: when I watched this video, it had 1,776 views 😀
Amazing!
The buildings are a credit to your town Scott.Wow the polychrome tiles on the bank, Thank-you for panning up and showing more of it.
Thanks Scott I feel like went on a day trip to Philly!This was Beautiful!! 1985! Teeny bopper!
Aww I still love a jelly mould.My friend had the oval split rear window beetle.Two door.Loved it..and of course. Herbie...🤗🤗🤗
I kept looking for my old high school marching band the Ridley Raiders I wasn’t in the band but I had lots of friends who were🎶 thank you again dear Scott for sharing Philadelphia through your 👀. I am actually sitting at Harrahs casino at the Jersey shore while my husband gambles watching this video🤑😋 obviously I’m not a highroller but having more fun just people watching. Thanks again for always keeping me entertained👏
Ah enjoy the Jersey shore!!!!!
The ceiling and areas inside the building with the organ,stunning.I know you have filmed it before at Christmas time.The light was different in this..glorious
Thanks so much for this video Scott. Every time you do one of these videos I end up loving Philly more and more. I'm so sorry about the shooter - but that's certainly nothing to do with Philadelphia (and is sadly now a part of our culture that has become too ordinary!) For years I've been catching the Amtrak from DC to New York and every time we pass through Philadelphia I swear I'm going to get off one day and see the place properly. I just celebrated (?!) my 72nd birthday and I guess I better go sooner than later. I'm thinking this fall, when things start to cool off a bit. Maybe just a day walking around and enjoying the places you picked out on this video. It would be a lovely day trip! Or maybe I'll win the lottery and get a room in that gorgeous big hotel and see a little more of the place. I'll keep my fingers crossed and hope!
Edit to add: One question about the parade - were the Shriners there? They were always my favorite in the parades I'd see when I was little. Maybe you just missed filming them?
Come on Mamie I'll meet you at Wanamakers and buy you a cheesesteak! Philly in autumn in lovely! Oh yes the Shriners are often in the parades but not this year. Because of pandemic bounce back, many usual participants were not present this year. So much planning is required to pull these events off and there wasn't certainty that there would be a parade this year. So it was a little thin. Just wait till next year!!!!!!!!!
@@oldcuriosityshop265 I hope so! I used to be just as fascinated by all the fezze's (fezzes?) worn by all the marchers as I was by the little cars with the clowns climbing out of them!
We had our town parade too. We had bagpipes and marching bands and my granddaughter was with the cub scouts. It was a fun and exciting day😊. The organ takes your breath away. Does it play at specific times or occasions? I can imagine it during the holidays! Thank you for sharing the history of the buildings as well. I always enjoy your videos😊
The organ is played twice a day except on Sundays. Each concert is about 45 min long and free to the public as they shop or just stand and listen. Throughout the year there are also extra special concerts with singers and other instrumentalists.
We enjoyed you sharing the parade with us. Were you at the fireworks show later? I am reading two police officers were wounded by gun fire! I hope you are safe!!!
Thank you for asking. I was on an embankment with friends and we had no idea what happened until this morning. When we saw the crowd begin to panic and run....so did we. I'm just fine and appreciate you asking.
Inside the Wanamaker building are there plexiglass barriers up to keep people safe? The railing looks a little low to me. Just had to ask. I always love hearing that organ and what a nice parade you had in your city. Looks like a great place to live for the most part. Thanks, Scott, for bringing us along. 👍💕
Yes railings to keep folks safe.
Happy 4th 💥🇺🇸Thanks for sharing 🥰 Enjoyed watching did you get your free Wawa hoagie?
Yasssss!!!!!
