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!
We Are Family
If we were done with our travels, I would take the next two weeks to relate our adventures in Romania and Switzerland. But we have more things coming up, so this is going to be a longer post. I’ll give you the highlights first, and then you can read on if you want more details.
Slower, With a British Accent
We’ve been in London since we left the cruise ship. This week was a bit slower and a welcome break from the last six weeks of constant movement. We’ve had some fun, eaten some good food, caught up on sleep, and made plans for the summer.
Baltic Beauty
The last post was all about the first half of our cruise and now I’ll tell you about the rest. We stopped in Helsinki, Tallinn, and Kristiansand and there was another unexpected change of plans.
Chicago! Love it there. You’re close to my Quinn! (He’s up the road in Evanston @ Northwestern.) Now go somewhere warm. 😊
