Unbelievable!
We finally
reached ...

 
Pittsburgh !!

Getting in Pittsburgh there was one, and only one thing I wanted to do: going to see the Andy Warhol museum. Guess what? It's closed on Tuesday !!

For all the rest, remain only the words Lou Reed uses in one of his songs about Andy Warhol ("Songs for Drella"): "There is only one good thing about Pittsburgh: you know you wanna get out of there". Or more or less it.

Actually we did not explore the place, so every commentary is imaginary, but the opinion is: "This is not California". So let's get out of here fast.

Motel

This is the motel we stayed in in Frederick, MD. One of those places in which you see people coming out of the sixties that probably lived there for the last decade ...

Driving

On the road again!

House on the waterfalls

This is considered a special site to visit, a house built on a waterfall.
Just one hint for all of you potential tourists: never visit it on August, the waterfall's reduced to a faucet!!

Fort Necessity

And there we go! At "Fort Necessity", shooting at Indians with my camera!

Looking out

... but no "Injuns" in sight!!
Luckily!

Waterfalls
On the road to Pittsburgh. It rains ...
Downtown Pittsburgh

Enjoying some more water falling ...

Check the package!

And in Vasco's house we can finally satisfy some of our wildest dreams: a good spaghetti carbonara and ... Japanese saké in the cardboard container! Like milk! Real from Japan! (check the writing on the packaging).

Enough for putting me to sleep. Good night everybody!

And finally: Pittsburgh!! It is raining, of course!
