CHICAGO

We had a blast in Chicago. I don't like to fly so we drove. I know, I could have been there in an hour but it was worth the drive. We got there Friday afternoon and tried some Chicago deep dish pizza. It was yummy. Then we went to a piano bar on Hubbard street. Piano bars are my favorite. We spent Saturday downtown site seeing. Sunday was the highlight of the trip and our favorite part...THE CUBS GAME!! We had so much fun!
Of course Andy insisted we sit in the outfield and we had to get there and hour and a half early to make sure we had good seats. We made friends with the people in line and they showed us where the best seats were. You should have seen all the people running. EVERYONE had Cubs shirts on except for us so we had to get some.

This is Bob. He is crowd management. He was in charge of keeping all of the drunks under control. He was great!
This is on our bus tour of downtown Chicago.
The sears tower is OVERRATED! We paid 30 dollars to go up there and we weren't really impressed at all. But, I guess it is one of those things you just have to do.
Saturday was our 5 year anniversary. When we went on our Honeymoon we ate at Texas de Brazil in Aruba. A block from our hotel was a Texas de Brazil. They gave us a free glass of champagne to celebrate!
