Chicago: Take Two

It is cold. And windy. My second trip to Chicago has not been quite as I envisioned it, mainly due to a sudden weather change. I had been planning to stroll the streets of Chicago, wearing flimsy spring clothing,  simply enjoying late spring. Unfortunately, strolling had to be replaced by fast walking, bordering on running, to stay warm. And instead of a tan, I have wind burn.

But the food was good. And so was the company. Pauline and I have managed to eat Chinese, Japanese,  Greek and Chicagoan cuisine in the few days we have been here. The NKU cafeteria food is just a faint memory by now. 

Enjoying famous Chicago-style pizza at Giordano's. While usually quite pricey, they have deep-dish pizzas from approximately 6 dollars between 11-3pm. 

Chicago is known as the Windy City. It definitely lives up to its name.
