This weekend Jed and I headed in two different directions. Jed took his Spring Break and headed to Denver with some friends to visit other friends while I stayed back east and took a road trip with a friend to Pittsburgh.
I loved seeing all Jed & company did through texts and pictures.

Meanwhile, on the east coast, Sam & I learned quickly that Pittsburgh was celebrating St. Patricks Day early with there main parade on Saturday so we found some appropriate attire and made our way downtown.

| Met St Patrick himself and we got to be on the Yajagoff! Pittsburgh Podcast with the other guys |
Our next stop was the Duquesne Incline to check out the views from the top of the mountain. It all felt like you were stepping back in time and the views were just amazing!
In typical #castrotravel style, it was time to find some weird & random places and Pittsburgh was full of them!
Our first weird place was Randyland. This guy is so quirky and we loved it.
Heading to a pinball arcade, Kickback Pinball Arcade, was next on our list of To Do's complete with awesome grilled cheese sandwiches for the full throw back feel.
The trifecta of unique places ended at the Bicycle Museum, Bicycle Heaven, where we saw thousands of bicycle and bicycle parts. This place was so fascinating.
We finished our day in Pittsburgh with dinner at Nicky's Thai right down the street for Arcade Comedy Theater where we watched a fantastic improv to close out our evening.
On Sunday, it was time to head home but we weren't ready to have the weekend end so we found a few adventures on our way home. But first, you can't start a road trip home without a over the top large breakfast and what better place to get that at then a diner, so off to Pamela's Diner we went.
We decided on our way out of the city to book tickets to Falling Water. It has been on both of our bucket lists and what better time to just do it. We had some time to kill while we waited for our time slot so we made the best of it by finding and friending Yogi Bear and going on a small little hike to a very icy waterfall, Cucumber Falls.
Our last top at Falling Water was just amazing! We loved going through the tour of the house and enjoying all the nature around us. It was so picture perfect with the snow covering so much. We definitely want to go back and see this house in all the different seasons.
