Windy City Urban Inn 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 ...

... late it arrived two hours late and I was rebooked on another plane, two hours later. I grabbed some Krispy Keme (Finally!) and waited at my gate. Finally I was on my final plane and heading back to Perth. This plane was pretty easy (anything is after a 14 hour flight) and I arrived in Perth in the early afternoon.

Sadly this is the end of my adventure but it's good to be home. Well almost; I'll be back at the airport tomorrow to head back to work. Whyyyyyyyyyyyyyy?

We did it, we finally had some Wisconsin Cheese, in Chicago! Ha, ha! It was good. The grand final came and went and Geelong proved victorious again! Go Gary Ablett you wild thing you. We headed into Chicago and onto a pub showing the footy game at midnight. It was great to be surrounded by people with a similar accent, although the waitress had to ask our orders about 8 times because she had no idea what we were saying. We had meat ...

... and more taxing every week, that now being free of any real responsibilities for the foreseeable future seems too beautiful for words.

... into a special exhibit of Harry Potter props. The clothing, the wands, the creatures-all the original items--very, very cool!! Getting us in the mood for the new HP movie which we will see in IMAX in Seattle. Dinner was egg salad made in the hotel room with a plastic fork and mayonnaise packets, eggs boiled at home before we left. We are living the high life now!

... Today was my last day at Depaul and in Chicago for about two and a half months. It's nice to have a completely different agenda. It's exciting.  I'm sure that I'll miss my agenda and all my chicago responsibilities in about a month, but they'll be back soon. And besides, my responsibility now is this journey. And the goal of this journey is to breathe, think, travel, excersize, explore, relax, and write.

Here we go.

After that village called Put-in-Bay,Chicago was something totally different and way more interesting.I had luck with weather while I was there (it was unusualy hot for begining of October) but also with people I've met there.It wasn't smooth on begining,my host got sick so I ended up with staying at Adam's place (cool teacher and CS member).City itself was pretty alive cos of the 30th marathon that was during my stay there.Since it was so hot ...

... can make." "Aw ma... I wish I would have noticed earlier, I just don't think it would be possible." But it was... I had my Brother-In-Law-To-Be pick me up from the airport at around 5pm. Once I arrived at the reception, everybody was soooo suprised - especially my mother; she was in tears; even me, I had to drink a couple Jack and cokes just to slow my heart rate. It was a wonderful wedding. We danced ...
