Chicago

[juliet]

Total quantity of Chicago I have seen or am going to see: Union Station. Which is very much like a train station.

Amtrak trains v comfortable, plus I got a double seat all to myself all the way from Emeryville (SF). They're double-decker, and there's an observation car, and the food in the dining car is actually reasonably acceptable, for train food. I could still kinda do without another 22 hours or whatever of it... speaking of which, I should probably go and find the next train. And some dinner.

Where are you headed now?

Well, 2 days ago I was in Washington v briefly, and yesterday I was in NY, and today I am in Philadelphia & tomorrow I am on another ship going back to the UK :)

(so: passing through, broadly speaking. I haven't had as much time spare as I kind of thought in my head that I had, somehow!)

Chicago is one of the those cities that I'm pleased I've been to, but don't really have much of a hankering to return.

I had some nice food, and went to a ball game which was fun, but apart from that it's not exactly SF or NYC.

Shame :-( Chicago is very nice. I'd like to do more there.
