This morning after breakfast we checked out and put our suitcases in our car down the street at 111 E Wacker in the parking garage. Got our parking voucher validated at the hotel so it was $120 instead of $190. We toured the Chicago History Museum which was pretty interesting. Lots of Chicago history on view. Lunch was a Chicago Hot Dog with all the trimmings. After the bus brought us back we navigated the parking garage and got out on Michigan to go to Congress for the start of Andrea's instructions. Followed them at 1 PM as we made our way through stop and go traffic on the Eisenhower Expressway. Picked up a bottle of Merlot in Downtown Downers Grove then to Andrea's house. We enjoyed our time but wow, was it ever smokey for our tastes. We got the tour of her addition, a lovely BBQ of riba, steak, salad, corn, Margarita's and Key Lime Pie. We really enjoyed her cute little dog named Ruby. Leftn there very tired and crashed at Bonnie's house. Bonnie is a widow and Andrea's Mothers friend.
