Pittsburgh - My favorite city

We got on the road right on time and got to Pittsburgh at about 6:00 this evening.
The first thing we did was ride the Monongahela Incline to the top of Mount Washington. Hector was a little scared at first, but actually enjoyed it once we got going. It looks like it's such a long way up there, but it really doesn't take long. We took some pretty great pictures on the top from the observation deck.
After we got back down on the Incline, we headed for Hard Rock Cafe. It was the first time I'd been to the Pittsburgh Cafe. I LOVE Hard Rock. Hector was pretty impressed with his first visit. Unfortunately, they didn't have any hats or shirts to fit him.
Before we checked in to the Microtel, we made a quick stop at Target to pick up some last minute items to take with us, like antibacterial wipes. We're going to be spending all day on the desert every day and decided we needed something to get the germs off!
We plan on getting the shuttle at 5:45 in the morning to head to Las Vegas with a short stop in Phoenix.
Once I can download some pictures from today, I'll get them online for you. Hector donned his goatee for Hard Rock so he'd look cool.
