The city of bridges

We took a weekend trip to Pittsburgh. We went through a long dark tunnel in a large mountainous hill and then BAM! the city smacks you in the face.

We were surprised at how quiet the city was - most of the restaurants in town were closed for the weekend. Felt kinda like a ghost town.  But we did find the party - Station Square and South Side was where it was at! We ate and walked around the city and marveled at the old buildings..and the people! People watching is one of my favorite sports.  Except when someone catches me looking... and then I'm like, Wha? I wasn't just starring at you like a creeper, promise!






Very Beautiful city. Plus, Batman was just filmed there...so YOU KNOW it is cool.

Looks like fun! We drove through last year and thought it looked like a cool city. Chris seems to thrilled you were taking his picture on the bridge! LOL

I've never been to Pittsburgh either - although one of my BYU roomies was from there. It's quite pretty - I didn't think it would be, for some reason. That's what's nice about living in the east - so many places to go that aren't that far away. My daughter is living just outside of Boston for the next four years and she's anxious to take lots of little trips.

We love Pitt. We've been there many times as Larkin grew up near there and his parents are only 50 minutes or so away. Fun stuff. Glad you found the party. You'll have to visit the point next time and take a cruise around the river. Pretty. Pretty.
