August 8, 2004

Being picked up by Jimmy in the James Bond mobile.

Driving around the beach.

It was such a beautiful day. It was hard to think about leaving.

It was a great day to just cruise around. So we did.

Out joy riding.

Buildings in Chicago are so tall. The tallest one here in Cincinnati is Carew Tower and it's only 50 stories.

The Sheraton from another view. This is where we stayed.

The buildings here are great. We were driving around town just checking out the sites.

The Weber Grill. We ate here. It was excellent. It was too dark inside to get good food pics. But, we had garden salad with 4 different salad dressings (blue cheese, Italian, roasted corn vinaigrette and roasted garlic dressing). Also we had an appetizer platter (Weber Sampler serves two 12.95 Rib Fingers, Beer Can Chicken Wings, Steak Skewers, BBQ Shrimp and Onion Curls), and some Grilled Steak Skewers With Ginger Soy Glaze 7.50. Iced tea to drink and we were good to go. It was delicious.

Just a cool building.

The Hotel Wacker. Traffic here is a nightmare, I must say.

Cruising along. The Navy Pier Ferris Wheel is in the background.

Next trip will include a stop here for a day of sun.

It was a much better day than yesterday. The weather was perfect !

On our way home, The Skyway Toll Bridge.
