Chicago

For Pat's birthday (yes, it's March 21st, but we couldn't get away then)I treated her to Chicago. First off, we took the train into Chicago from Waterloo, Indiana. This was a new experience for both of us. I've been on trains in France but not the USA. Interesting side note: in France, life is laid back but the trains run on time to the minute. In the USA, life is fast paced with eyes on the clock, but the trains run hours behind schedule. We loved Chicago, especially the musical "Wicked." Wicked is an interesting twist to the Wizard of Oz story. If you have the opportunity to see Wicked, do so! But nothing is greater than holding the hand of the one you love strolling down Michigan Avenue while people watching and gazing at the sights. The four days renewed are spirits and our lives together. These are the days my friend.
