Chicago to NYC to San Francisco

In the past three weeks I have been busy frequenting airports as I often find myself doing in the spring. In late March we took a quick trip to Chicago to spend the weekend with family. It was COLD but sunny and we were able to walk through Millenium and Grant Park, go shopping, and have some delicious meals. We also visited the Field Museum, and Art Institute. Jack was a big fan of the pool at the hotel and jumping on the bed, as two year olds often are.

Then we spent a busy easter weekend at home. I found my way into a few social engagements and we tried a speciality cocktail bar/speakeasy in Long Island City which is right next door to our neighborhood but we hardly ever venture there.

On Tuesday I left for a work trip to San Francisco. I have never been to California (can you believe it?!) and was excited to see a bit of the city. I stayed downtown for four nights, and while I was kept quite busy with work, the weather was nice and I enjoyed walking to the Ferry building, seeing the Bay Bridge, and sipping a glass of wine outside in Union Square. I want to go back and visit with Sean. Wine tasting in Napa Valley is also a must sometime in the near future!

I do love to travel, but after getting home at 1:00 a.m. last night and apartment hunting today, I am ready to be home for a while!
