Cathedral of Learning

While we were in Pittsburgh for our sandwich at Primanti Brothers, we managed to squeeze in a trip to the University of Pittsburgh.  Not only to see the beautiful architecture but to hopefully inspire our daughter to improve her grades.  Who wants to go to a community college when they can go so somewhere like the University of Pittsburgh?

We rode up to the 36th floor of the Cathedral of Learning and the elevator ride was surprisingly quick AND smooth.  I normally don't care for elevators, but this one didn't bother me a bit.  The highlight of the trip, however, were the Nationality Classrooms.  Each room decorated in the decor of that country.  For the Christmas holidays, each room is also decorated in their native holiday decor.  The rooms were spectacular, each more beautiful than the next.
