On Land and on the High Seas

Friday Dee and I decided to go downtown to Pittsburgh. First it was lunch at Wholeys for a fish sandwich and then the 21st Street Cafe for "cold brewed iced coffee" (the best in the city) and then off for a ride on the "Just Duckie Tours". They are small buses that can ride on land and in the water. It was a tour of Pittsburgh on land and the rivers of the city. Here is a picture of our vehicle, and one of the skyline and plus a video clip of the fountain at the Point where the three rivers come together. The Fountain is actually make from a fourth river beneath the other three. It's called an aquifer. I took other pictures and you'll see them in the coming days. (Remember you can click on the photos and they'll be enlarged on your screen, and you can play the video with a click of your mouse.)

We finished our outing with dinner at Pizza Hut (Wing Street) back in Mars near our housing plan, and I got a haircut at Great Clips for $5.00. They just opened and are having a special. We had a great day!
