For the love of TRAVEL! Wednesday, November 19, 2008. Pittsburgh, PA - I love it! Boy am I glad I did. Here's a picture I took of the pretty trees from the hotel parking lot:. Sunday I met up with Christy (a friend from Lancaster who is a freshman. At University of Pittsburgh) at her dorm. It is an interesting campus because it is spread throughout the city (much like schools in SF), not all together like most schools. It has such pretty buildings, such as these (Left: Pitt, Right: CMU):. I will be addin...

For the love of TRAVEL! Friday, May 23, 2008. While looking up information on vaccines and such I would need before my trip to Thailand / Malaysia this summer, I ran accross a suggestion that you should have a "Traveler's First Aid Kit". Thinking this sounded like a really wise idea, I started reading. Sunscreen - right, good call. Oral rehydration solution packets - facinating, never would have thought of something like that. Latex condoms - wait, what? Subscribe to: Posts (Atom). The Peters Family Blog.

For the love of TRAVEL! Monday, April 21, 2008. Antelope Valley Poppy Reserve. Despite the fact that I've lived out in the Antelope Valley for 4 years now, and have attended the "Poppy Festival" every year, I had never made it out to the Poppy Reserve a few miles out of town. Brad and I decided to check it out yesterday, and it was really pretty! Monday, April 14, 2008. Palm Springs - Girl's Birthday / Spa Weekend. Heather suggested we go out to Palm Springs to celebrate our 27th Birthdays! Despite a lit...

For the love of TRAVEL! Friday, January 22, 2010. Pittsburgh - I still like it, but it is so backwards. Now that I've lived here a few months I feel the desire to share my new opinion of Pittsburgh. While I am still a fan of the city for the most part, there are just so many odd things about this place that I felt the need to elaborate them for all of you:. 5 Culture / Food. The local Pittsburgh people are referred to as Yinzers. Due to the fact that their phrase is yinz, instead of "you guys" or "y'...

For the love of TRAVEL! Tuesday, February 24, 2009. Utah - Salt Lake City and Ogden. I have been planning to visit Kelsey and Josh's home in Ogden, Utah for years now, but just haven't been able to find the time or a good excuse. When Kelsey sent out a note inviting me to her baby shower at the same time I found a killer plane ticket deal to SLC, I was in like flint. Friday, Feb. 20 -. After the tour guides instantly knew we weren't Mormons (was it our heathen jeans and tennis shoes? Since we had been in...

For the love of TRAVEL! Tuesday, June 30, 2009. New York City - city of amazing, fattening food! Since I got a Forte Fellowship to Grad. School, I got the opportunity to go to NYC for the annual conference. I gave myself an extra day and a half to check out the city before the conference - but what to do? So many choices, so little time! I was a little worried about traveling by myself, but figured between the awesome subway and the fact that I'd be doing totally touristy stuff I would be fine. Since Bra...

For the love of TRAVEL! Sunday, September 28, 2008. Thailand Trip - part 1. Monday, Aug. 4. Tuesday, Aug. 5. It had been years since I’d flown out of LAX (I try to avoid it by flying out of Burbank or Ontario), but I really couldn’t believe what a crummy, teeny international terminal it had! Everything was filthy and half under construction, there was no sit down restaurants or coffee bars (what, no Starbucks? Wednesday, Aug. 6. We lost a day due to flying and crossing over the International Date Line!
