We had a great week in Chicago! This will be a quick installment and then we will probably be off the radar for a bit. This coming week we will be in a small town: Napoleon, Ohio. We are on our way to Marietta to meet up with our two oldest kids, their families, and other various family members for an early Christmas celebration.
This week we had a blast doing daily outings. We went back to the House of Blues, which is a great place for some live music and a tasty bite. We went twice to the Den Theater. We saw a one-man show called “Charles Dickens Begrudgingly Performs ‘A Christmas Carol’ Again” and we also saw two Colombian comedians. Both were fun. We spent hours at the Griffin Museum of Science and Industry and we especially enjoyed the special exhibit about tech in the James Bond films. We ate tacos, more Mexican food, & Egyptian food. We attempted to have Raclette (ooey gooey cheese on a piece of bread) at the Christmas Market, but the line was laughably long, so we skipped it. We also did a day trip to Milwaukee. We wandered around town, ate bratwursts, and bought a lot of cheese. What more do you do in Wisconsin?
It’s been a great week and we enjoyed it a lot. We really can’t wait to get all six grandkids together for the first time. Have a good one!
Fringe Frenzy
Hello from Edinburgh! We had a couple of very steamy days in London, then hopped on a train bound for Scotland. We are here to immerse ourselves in the craziness that is the Edinburgh Fringe Festival and enjoy this magical city.
Seagulls and the West End
It’s been a lovely week in England. We finished up our road trip in the south and returned to London for a few days to rest and regroup.
