Anticipation

Almost time for the highlight of the summer, Kristy and my trip to Chicago. We are flying out on Saturday morning on American (right before the baggage fee is implemented) and returning Tuesday night (right after the baggage fee is implemented). Should be a lot of fun. We are staying at Swissotel for 2 nights and the Hotel Sofitel for one night.

Planned dinners include Kristy's choice of Geja's Cafe, and mine of Gibson's Steakhouse. I have eaten at Gibson's before on my last trip to Chicago, but out in Rosemont near O'Hare. I really enjoyed it then, so I am looking forward to the downtown Chicago location.

We plan on seeing the Navy Pier, taking an architecture tour, and seeing the musical "Wicked" among other things. I also want to have my picture made in front of the Michael Jordan statue at the United Center. Should be a lot of fun to celebrate our 5th Anniversary.
