Hello from Chicago! As well as being the windy city, it's also been the hot city (37c) and the wet city (p***ing it down!)
We have had some fun here though, Lollapalooza Festival was excellent - but very, very hot - needed lots of beer to keep us both cool! We have done some touristy stuff here as well such as vistiting the zoo, and ascending the top floors of both the Sears Tower and The John Hancock Building. The food here is fantastic! Chicago hot dogs are better than New York's and the Pizza Pie we had the other night was as delicious as it was humungous!!!
It's our last day here - we get the overnight train to Memphis tonight - so we're making good use of the free internet at our hotel. There are some photos of Chicago below and we've also updated the Boston page.

Hope you're all well...

Pip pip,

Guy & Rachel xxx
