Topics: Pittsburg, PA, Niagara Falls, Canada and Vermont When you hear the word Pittsburgh one usually doesn’t invasion beautiful tree filled hills crisscrossed with rivers and towering bridges but that is the real Pittsburg. Of course you can’t forget it’s fascinating ethic neighborhoods, active cultural scene, and food you can’t get anywhere else. These are the things that make Pittsburgh one of Rochelle’s favorite cities on this road trip. Rochelle’s co-pilot for the past month takes over the airwaves as we roll into Niagara Falls, Canada. Find out about the great sightseeing tours and learn about Rochies detainment at the border for weapons.

One of the most memorable states is our next stop! Vermont is quaint, friendly, beautiful, tasty, unforgettable and jam-packed with things to do. Grab a Vermont Teddy Bear before hitting the outdoor pedestrian mall in Burlington. Then it’s off to good old Ben and Jerry’s in Waterbury. You can’t forget to shoot up the road to Stowe for a bit of dining or if the season is right, skiing. Covered bridges are plentiful as well as postcard perfect towns and villages like Woodstock (voted pretties small town in America)
