Our time in Chicago also included some other fun experiences. Along with walks up Michigan Avenue and enjoying the gorgeous architecture, we ate at a Lebanese restaurant with a group of friends. The food was delicious and the entertainment included a very enthusiastic belly dancer.

I also spotted a bit of Edinburgh in the Tribune Building. Thanks Becky for pointing this out.
We also dined on the 95th floor of the Hancock Building. What a fun experience. My friend Anna recommended checking out the restaurant for lunch and it was a winner. One floor above the viewing platform the restaurant provides wonderful views of the city along with a moderately priced, and delicious, lunch menu.
And here’s a pic snapped by a stranger of Scotty and me.
Thank you Chicago for providing me with a much needed break and an excuse to wear boots and sweaters.
I must tell you that I did some traveling to the east coast the end of October. Went to a wedding for my cousin in Long Island. Loved the fall colors, very unusual vacation. Spent four days with my aunt in Matawan, NJ, who was without electricity, was there when the big storm Sandy came through. Lost power for several days, but no flooding. Quite a change from the normal boring weather we get in Southern Calif.
Aaaah….. this sounds soooo relaxing!!! Glad you enjoyed your trip!!! I like the new blog title…. very appropriate!!
