Day 3- Baseball and Sun

We started off with another late breakfast in the dorms. Then we had time to work on the computers and relax. It was nice to get another day to sleep in. But, we have been warned that will change tomorrow! Next we headed off to watch the Pirates baseball. We walked over to the stadium. It was an extremely hot day, but it was nice to get to see the city. We were able to learn lots about the city. It was exciting to see this sport that many of us had not seen before. We had all you can eat seats, which meant we could get as many drinks, hot dogs, hamburgers, ice cream, peanuts, and popcorn as we could eat. It was very hot and sunny throughout the game. The game was the Pittsburgh Pirates versus the Houston Astros. It was nice to se the Pirates win in a shut-out (the final score was 9-0). There were some exciting plays. After the game we headed over to the Water Steps along the North Shore. Many of us got into the fountains while others of us just sat on the grass and relaxed. Then we made the long trek back to the dorms. We saw more of the city, including Fort Pitt. Back at the dorms we had an hour for much need relaxation and time to cool down after the heat. Next we went to Eat'n Park for dinner. It was a delicious dinner with lots of choices. However, few people could actually finish their dinner (all you can eat seats have a strange tendency of eliminating any hunger). We headed back to the dorms after dinner. We are excited for tomorrow when we will continue our adventure.
