I wound up going over the BF bridge by accident wandering around CC. There were a few traffic patterns which, once you got into 'em there was no way out...

That has happened to me a few times now. I swear that there is a misleading 95 North sign down near 5th and Vine...because I thought I followed it perfectly...and wound up in Jersey.
The other thing I find amusing is that there are no tolls going into Jersey, but are going out (at least on the Whitman, Franklin, Tacony, and Betsy Ross bridges).

At this point, having lived in a few different places in the area (including Jersey for a stupid two years), the only section I don't really know at all is southwest Philly and the Delco area around it. East of the Blue Route, north of Upper Darby, south of Rt 1, just seems like a useless area... sorry for anyone who lives there.

If I'm right, that sounds like the Overbrook/City Line and Lower Merion areas. It's actually not a bad area...so long as you don't go too far down Haverford Ave. or 63rd St. If our rent is jacked up too much come renewal time, we may move over that way. So long as it's not at a place with lots of St. Joe's students.
I really like parts of SW Philly, except that it just seems so far away from everything. (Which is rather ironic, seeing as I currently live in the Far Northeast.)
