Pittsburgh

Well I tried to blog from the iPod and it allowed me to put a heading and label in place but then steadfastly refused to allow me to add text - kept you all guessing I presume? (In defence of the minute piece of equipment I will say it has opened PDFs and even spreadsheets as attachments!)

The day in question we went with Rachael to see the Cathedral of Learning or simply the Cathedral if you are a local. It has several floors dedicated to cultures from all over the world and each room (which are routinely used for lectures) is decorated in a style which reflects that culture. It is quite bizarre in a respectful and tasteful style.

Above is the Austrian room with a couple of Australians (not the same) - a confusion often made all over the world.
Opposite the Cathedral is a non-denominational "chapel" built by Heinz of the 57 varieties for the students of the University.


You may get some idea of the size of the chapel from the people standing in front - there are stained glass windows inside that are 73 feet high! It is an impressive building to say the least.
