Yesterday I visited Phipps Conservatory. This was an extra special bucket list accomplishment because I got to check this one off with my brother, Marc, after he made a surprise appearance in Pittsburgh over the weekend. My roommates, Alex and Jules, also came along. Now I understand what all the hype over Phipps is about. The flora was so beautiful, and with the presence of waterfalls and ponds in most of the rooms walking through the conservatory was almost a therapeutic experience. Next time I visit I want to get fresh juice from Cafe Phipps (which is on the lower level to your right when you enter), take a good book, and just sit in one of the bright rooms and relax. Also, as with the Mattress Factory, admission to Phipps is free with your Pitt ID. So what are you waiting for, check it out!
