Chicago

Fall has started and we are noticing it. Temperatures are dropping fast and we are starting to see Halloween decoration on the streets.

Last weekend we traveled to Chicago, and had a wonderful time. They call it the windy city and that was not a lie, there was a cold breeze and it must have been awful for the participants to the 35th annual marathon. So what did we do? We checked out some of downtown Chicago's major attractions like Anish Kapoor's Gloud Gate and Frank Gehrys Jay Pritzker Pavillion and BP pedestrian Bridge.

The next couple of days I'm going to give you some updates about our trip (Expect more about famous architects Mies Van der Rohe and Frank Lloyd Wright) but today I'll just start with some pictures of Downtown Chicago.
