"The Strip" is a taste of many cultures from food to artifacts. Due to the holiday, we were not able to visit the Andy Warhol Museum. The Heinz museum was fascinating for people of any age. Their section dedicated to September 11 was an eye opener and left an impacting effect. The downtown mainly consisted of art student galleries offering free viewings and upscale stores. "Main Station" was relaxing, and we caught a family boat tour. We were able to hear the fans cheer during the Steelers vs. Cincinnati game. It was thrilling! The best part, I would say, was the exceptional view from both the boat and at the top of the Dubuque incline.
Quick Tips:
I always find on the Internet the visitors center to where I am planning on vising and sign up for a free guide. It includes all of the city's highlights. I also check the hotel room and ask the concierge for unique places to visit or things to do.Best Way To Get Around:
We mainly used the shuttle service because it was free and they were happy to take us anywhere we wanted at any time. I have some problems walking, but we are able to walk through the near by area (downtown and "the Strip").
