The Navy Pier & The Wrong Way

We woke up this morning, fairly early, to a beautiful day (thank God!), which was soon marred by lots of confusion. We had decided last night before going to bed that trying to get to Mount Rushmore in a day (over 15 hours of driving!) was not going to happen. So we found and booked a hotel...

Passport: Got.

So, success. My mom and I got our passports. We drove up and arrived around 1:30 AM, slept, woke up, went to our passport appointment, had lunch at a British style pub, picked up our passports, and then spent the rest of the day walking from 0 N. Michigan Ave. to 820 N. Michigan Ave. It was...

Chicago

Sorry it took so long... Well, lots of things happened since I've been here last time... so, I'll make a brief exposure of what was Chicago for me... and it was awesome. I am a very lucky girl! (I wish I could say more, but I can't...). Anyway, we stayed at a very nice hotel (a expensive...

To Chicago for My E2 Visa

Ah, one more step complete in preparation for my trip to Busan. I went to Chicago today to apply for my visa to enter Korea. I took the infamous "Hell Train", as my friends and I have deemed it, technically it is the South Shore Line commuter train that runs from Michigan City, IN to...

Chi-Town Birthday Bash - Night 4

Had a weak breakfast at the critically acclaimed Mykonos restaurant. Katina's in Seattle is twice the Greek Restaurant. Spent the morning down on the water reading and enjoying a beautiful fall morning. Milwaukee has been redeveloping, but still remains an odd combination of condos, grass...

03 Agosto 2007

Che giornata tremenda!! Passiamo la solita oretta passata in biblioteca centrale a patire il freddo dell'aria condizionata (18 gradi rispetto i 42 esterni) e cerchiamo di azionarci in modo da capire cosa fare per andare ad Indianapolis il 05 agosto, come da programma. Cadiamo nella prima (e...

Over (the Pacific) and Out

My three-day, four-flight trip home is over, so this last "J-Mac's Junket" blog entry is bittersweet. But, spending my last 18 hours in Hong Kong was a great way to end a whirlwind trip. My flight from Bangkok arrived in the late evening (putting me in the city at 9 pm), and although I...
