Whilst it has been over a week since my from the Windy City - very lax blogging - I still think it worthwhile to note my views of the city.
For once a US city surprised me. The city was clean, neat and in places even manicured with flower beds along some of the roads. The green heart of connecting gardens in front of the lake shore was refreshing, pushing back the urban urgency of the concrete and glass towers of modern America.
The attitude to culture was highlighted by the short tour of an art gallery we was treated to, our host was both knowledgeable, subtle and very keen to show us some of the treasures they hold.
Notwithstanding this was summer and the harsh approaching winter a distant prospect, I have to say that Chicago is my kinda (ok, qualified to US) of town
