Last Saturday, Scott & I took Sarah & John into Pittsburgh to see the Winter Garden in PPG plaza. It looked like a fairy tale! They had it beautifully decorated as usual. The ice skating rink was in full swing with Christmas music serenading them.
The wonderful aroma of coffee wafted around our nostrils as we stepped into the display room. We took our time at each display. Scott was drawn to the miniture train village in the center.
As we made our way around the room, an elderly gentleman sat down at the grand piano & began to play the most beautiful Christmas music I have ever heard.
Market Square was decorated in Christmas attire as well, complete with a horse drawn carriage to boot!
The trolley bus was going as well. After dinner, we headed up to see the creche at the USX building. On the way we passed the old Horne's Christmas trees on the corner of their building. Sorry about those signs in the way, we were stopped at a light hen I took that picture.
Afterwards, we toured Oakland. We went passed Heinz Chapel on the way into the Cathedral of Learning. The chapel was all lit up, of course, showing off it wonderful architecture. John was amazed at all he saw!
We ended the evening at a cozy little cafe in Squirrel Hill called The Coffee Tree Roasters. It was warm & inviting, & the coffee, hot cocoa, & chai warmed us up.
