Back Home Again

Jun 10, 2008 23:45

Returned from PA visiting my sister with the family tonight. We drove, because, surprisingly enough, it is cheaper to drive than to buy 4 plane tickets. We had lots of fun and splurged far more than we should have. Lots of nice meals and some shopping and visiting sites of Pittsburgh (U of Pitt's Cathedral of Learning and the National Aviary ( Read more... )

I didn't know you were in the Burgh! It's one of the best cities in the US; I love it.

Did you go shopping on Walnut street? Get ice cream and Dave and Andy's in Oakland? Go to Galiftys in Squriell Hill (best cheesecake in the US at every major competition)???

Whatever the case, I hope you had tons and tons of fun because Pittsburgh rocks hard

I did have lots of fun! We did wander Oakland, though we got ice cream at Squirell Hill -- Ben and Jerry's (the flavor my sis wanted at Rita's wasn't made that day). And no one in my family really likes Cheesecake (except maybe my mom, but my dad doesn't eat cheese). I did definitely love visiting and had quite a lot of fun. It's a lovely city with beautiful houses and lots of things to look at and do.
