Sunday 24th May

Up early today and the first stop was the Duquesne Incline. We put the address in to the GPS and it took us to the top of the incline. The plan was to drive to the bottom and catch the incline to the top and back. Since we were already at the top we just had a look around and took some photos. We really didn’t need to pay the $8 to ride the incline.

After that we went to the Andy Warhol Museum. It was really good, 6 floors of paintings and stories of the life of Warhol. Bronte wanted to buy some stuff in the Warhol shop so we now own two Warhol prints that we need to frame when we get home. Had lunch in downtown Pittsburgh and then went for a drive around the town for a look. The weather had come in bad and it started to pour with rain. So we decided to check out the rest of Pittsburgh by car. Continued to drive around and we ended up back at Walmart where we bought some stuff for dinner and then went back to the room to eat it. Got back to the motel and had a bit of a rest. Went to the exercise room and ran for about half an hour on the tread mill for some exercise. After dinner we went for a drive to the Duquesne incline for another look at the city this time by night lights. Took some really cool photos of the city and had a bit of a walk around at the lookout.

Heading to Cleveland Ohio tomorrow as we make our way north east across America heading towards Canada.
