Here we are in Chicago!
Our room is downtown on Franklin, a block from the "L". It seems that everything we would want, is either within walking distance, or we can use a bus or train or "L" or plane.
The public transportation system is why I LOVE Chicago!
We have sort of plans to have lunch with a cousin of my husband and I am hoping for an architectural cruise along the Chicago River. Other things as we set these few days up.
Just to give you a hint of our life here, this, THIS! is our work space here at the hotel. Overlooking the downtown buildings, which gives you a nice view and the king bed that is so appreciated after the past 2 days on a cramped single bunk Roomette on the Amtrak.
Glad we made it here OK.
Uniformly ? accord to the weather report we will have rain thursday & Friday. But I can't wait to see both of you. :-)
ReplyDeleteThat room looks fabulous -- I love the window. Chicago's transit is fabulous; it's such an easy city to visit because of it, like Washington, DC.
ReplyDeleteEnjoy, enjoy, enjoy!!!
Thanks for the weather report. Hopefully, it won't be an issue.
ReplyDeletePiglet: I kept thinking that this city reminds me of your area of the world...at least over by the Chicago River. Don't you have planters hanging from poles on the streets? If you don't you should. :-)
