Mom and Dad--some suggestions for your visit! You'd think I was the one going on vacation for the enthusiasm I'm putting into this itinerary. But since my nights have been spent awake with a feverish toddler, and my days a blur of Thomas the Tank Engine, raisins and goldfish crackers...I'm looking forward to a change of pace. That and I miss you guys. So...
Sunday
After a driving tour of our Squirrel Hill neighborhood, we can head to Mt. Washington and ride the Monongahela Incline. Afterwards, we'll enjoy "the second most beautiful view in America" while dining at one of Mt. Washington’s restaurants. (Do you wonder what USA Weekend ranked the most beautiful view? Not the Golden Gate Bridge, which came in fifth. Can't guess? Read here.)
Monday
Visit the nearby Frick Art and Historical Center, and have lunch or afternoon tea at The Café at the Frick.
Tuesday
The Strip District
Heinz History Center
Lunch at Primanti Brother’s Restaurant
Wednesday
A driving tour of Pennsylvania fall foliage through
Indiana County, stopping at the Amish settlement of Smicksburg.
From Smicksburg, it’s another 25 minutes to Gobbler’s Knob, the home of Puxsutawney Phil, that famous groundhog.
Thursday
The Carnegie Museums: Art, Natural History, Science Center, The Andy Warhol Museum
Friday
Another drive in the country to see Frank Lloyd Wright’s Fallingwater.
With a longer road trip, we can also visit the
Antiochian Village Heritage Museum
Should be a lot of fun.... n'at.
