The First Union center south of downtown Philadelphia was surrounded by a tent city that is serving as headquarters for some 15,000 journalists from across the world. Many of those reporters attended a media party at the convention center on Saturday night that showcased the best Philadelphia restaurants. Following that first "official" activity, the media crowd took a guided tour around Independence Hall that featured a laser light show tracing the activities of Benjamin Franklin and the nation's founding fathers.
