I love this city.
That's all I could think as I walked along Michigan Avenue last night with Marilyn. And I kept saying it out loud, turning around, looking up and all about me, and grinning from ear to ear. I probably looked like the stereotypical tourist.
We had driven up after work on Friday, delighted and slightly surprised as always by the ease and speed of the trip. The bright lights of the buildings as we drove north along Lake Shore Drive were enchanting.
We went for a walk after we checked into our hotel near Water Tower, unable to resist the city though we were both exhausted.
The evening was cool and windy, the air refreshing. "Sweatshirt weather," we said simultaneously, and then we laughed. Most of the shops had closed, so we moved easily along the sidewalks, reaching familiar landmarks more quickly than we expected.
Today dawned sunny and crisp, and we walked around the city some more. These are some of the photos I took on this sunny Saturday in Chicago.
