Anderson Playground Merry-go-round. Kids — and even adults — love to spin around. Try this one near the foot of Panther Hollow Bridge, in Schenley Park.

Carrot Cake at James Street Gastropub. Rich and moist, drizzled with caramel sauce, it’s as good as this dessert gets — though honestly, the massive slice is probably meant for two. 422 Foreland St., North Side
Greyhound Online Fares. In a world of discount upstarts, the old gray dog (still with the most cities and departure times) now offers competitive web-only prices. Round-trippers to Philly, for instance, can go for as little as $46 if snagged well in advance. www.greyhound.com
