Chicago

November 28-30, 2014

We arrived in Chicago on Friday and after another great dinner attended the play Camelot at the Drury Lane Theatre.  This is the only shot I got of the show (stage). I was immediately accosted and told there were absolutely no photos allowed at all.  Evidently frowned upon..........pompous asses!!


After the show we enjoyed a drink with Shirley Walters. 


Saturday we were off to downtown Chicago. 


First stop was the Navy Pier, where we got a chance to stretch our legs a bit. 


Next stop was the Museum of Technology.  A great museum, where one if the highlights for me was seeing Craig Breedlove's Spirit of America, the jet car that set land speed records of 500+ mph in the 60's. 


Back in the bus for a tour of the downtown including a drive by of the Macy's windows decorated for Christmas. Downtown Chicago is beautiful. 


Our lunch was at Tommy Gun's where we enjoyed a great meal and a dinner show. 




Back to the hotel where we enjoyed our last dinner of the trip.  Every dinner has been like a banquet in surroundings similar to this!

One last picture with our hosts, the fabulous Walters Family.  They are truly very special people. 


A great trip for sure, but it will still be good to get home tomorrow.
