After checking into our hotel, we walked to Primanti's for supper. The Pittsburgh specialty was good, but I prefer my french fries and slaw on the side rather than on top of my sandwich.
The Wyndam Grand is right at the point where the rivers meet, and the view from our room was amazing -- maybe the best we've ever gotten. We could see the incline lit up, a couple of bridges, the rivers and the boats on them, Point State Park and fountain, the football stadium and buildings at the peak of the nearby summit. After the kids swam in the pool, Atticus just wanted to sit on the chair next to the floor-to-ceiling window to "unlax."
Our second night we went down to the park as the sun was setting. We sat by the fountain watching a man create giant bubbles with two sticks and a rope. Back at the hotel room, we watched some fireworks being set off by Heinz Field, probably to mark the end of a concert happening that night. The kids and even Paul fell asleep, and I sat by the window watching the city lights.
