320 North Michigan Avenue Chicago

After leaving the HD Museum in Milwaukee, it only took us a little over an hour to reach Chicago. The thing that bugged us on this stretch of road was that we needed to stop at many toll roads just to get us through I-90 and I-94. We thought they should name a road after us for all the tolls we paid. We stopped at Tank Noodle in Chinatown after getting this recommendation from Bryan ...

Tough trip to plan for ....20F in Beijing and 95F in Jakarta. A lot of business meetings and not sure laundry limits. I'll be outside if trekking to the Great Wall. I'm going to be all over the place. Packed a suitcase in a suitcase in case I see something to buy for the girls/family too good to pass up.

... with an amazing woman who would become my wife. Pixar went on to create the worlds first computer animated feature film, Toy Story, and is now the most successful animation studio in the world. In a remarkable turn of events, Apple bought NeXT, I returned to Apple, and the technology we developed at NeXT is at the heart of Apple's current renaissance. And Laurene and I have a wonderful family together.

I'm pretty sure none of this would have happened if I hadn't been fired ...

... be a great idea to hire bikes and ride along the shoreline of Lake Michigan, so we made our way to the bike-hire centre, just north of Millennium Park. We hired a couple of 'comfort bikes', although they were anything but, and made our way slowly to the lake. I hadn't ridden a bike for ages and these particular bikes had narrow tyres, so I was wobbling all over the place! I was completely out of my comfort zone and to make matters worse it was absolutely ...

... no sé, horas. La verdad, fue muy bonito. Y me acabo de hacer fan de la música country. Eso sí, por mucho que queríamos que nos sacara un vaquero a bailar, la única afortunada fue Krisztina, ¡¡hou-deir!!

En fin, el día 3 (en el que aun estoy) ha empezado con un brunch al más puro estilo americano y nos quedamos más que satisfechos con pancakes, huevos revueltos, salchichas, y bacon. Toma ya, sano sanísimo. Como hacía un poco de mal día (calor pero medio lloviznando) acto ...

Our options for getting to Anchorage, AK in time for the 9:30pm sailing of our cruise ship on Saturday was to either take a flight that left at 8pm Friday night and arrived just after midnight in Anchorage, or a flight that left at 8am Saturday and arrived at 2:30pm. We opted to have the early Saturday flight rather than arriving in the middle of the night and having to sit around the airport for six hours before the Princess transfer buses would be ready ...

Chicago is such a beautiful City!! It’s clean, modern, refreshing and vibrant. The people here are just as trendy and they are all very stylish, I am impressed ...

After a flying with Virgin Atlantic from heathrow we had to connect here a Ohare to get to Omaha.

Wow the first experience of a delayed connecting flight due to weather conditions and AAirlines not flying we set here for hours waiting for the connection flight.

After a 30 - 40 minuiete walk accross from the international ...

... transition benefiting many children. On the Sabbath we'll be in Khust and Rokosovo. It's always so enjoyable to be with friends Ivan and Nina Yurishko, Vasyl and Svetlana Mondich and others. Then we backtrack to Budapest next Sunday where Dan and Cindy will fly back to Paris while Bev and I will take the train to Vienna and fly to Riga, Latvia where we will stay with the Baptist pastor Robert Schultz and his wife Elita ...

While I love my job and the people I work with, I am unfortunately not pulling in the desired amount of sponsors that the company asks of us each week. This means that in the next week or two I have to get my numbers up or I will be let go. I can not say that I am bitter, because obviously they are paying me to do a job that for whatever reason I'm not particularly good at. I have tried changing my pitch, being more assertive, more ...
