Chicago Bean

Chicago 2018 – Day Seven (warm day)

A very warm day today at 30 degrees but very pleasant indeed.

We had a late start to the day and even managed a Skype call with mum and dad while I was sat on the decking at the rear eating breakfast and watching the wildlife. It was a shame that dad couldn’t see the Red Cardinals or the woodpecker. More a problem with the camera rather than dad’s eyes!

We drove over to Geneva today about 30 minutes drive away. We walked from one end of town to the other down the main Street, not what we expected. So we headed off down a side street and that we the better choice. We finally got to see Geneva in its full historic glory.

We walked past the historic Geneva Court House and found a nice restaurant where we sat for an hour in the sun drinking pink lemonade watching the world go bye. $3 for 2 glasses of pink lemonade that was refilled. Cheap as chips! Following this we took a stroll down the river (Fox River) and saw birds similar to cormorant and another that looked like a heron.

From Geneva we drove over to Aurora and then on to the Premium Outletsandnbsp; Shopping Centre for some more detail therapy for Michele. This was a sucesssful trip for both of us with new shoes and clothes.

Now sat chilling with Elle, Julie and Michele planning tomorrow’s drive to Canada,
