Thanks to those who submitted a guess for our latest destination (Martha and Emily). I had to laugh at your guesses, since it seems that you think we are smart and that we would go somewhere warm like New Orleans or Florida. NOPE!

We are in Chicago! And we are freezing! Ha!

We like it here, but the weather turned cold just before we left St. Louis, so we really aren’t used to winter conditions yet. But we are bundling up and getting out for a bit of fun every day. We have done a few fun things already. We went to stand-up comedy at The Second City. We went to Chinatown on Thanksgiving, had sushi, and wandered around the market. We had dinner and enjoyed the live music (Tom Holland, guitar) at House of Blues. We did a (very cold) Architecture Boat Tour on the Chicago River and it was excellent. We’ll be here for another week, so more fun to come!

Have a great week and stay warm!

The Wall

It’s been a mixed bag this week. We finished our tour of Ireland, moved on to England, and worked our way through a bit of a rough patch.

Wet and Wild

Wet and Wild

It’s been a very busy week touring the west coast of Ireland. We’ve seen cities, towns, and little villages that aren’t much more than a crossroad. We’ve walked mountains, cliffs, and fields full of sheep. We’ve even seen the sun occasionally!

We finished up our time in Switzerland and now we are in another very green, very beautiful country…Ireland! We were lucky enough to visit here in 2019 for several days and we’ve wanted to come back ever since.
