Default i love chicago

the Gf and i are visiting from Hawaii for the Packexpo convention at the McCormick center. But I gotta tell you guys, I love this city. it's one of the most beautiful cities in America.

also, i just got back to the hotel from a FANTASTIC meal at Alinea. almost 4 hours, 24 courses, 13 different wine pairings and i'm in heaven.

Thanks for hosting us!!

Kent

Coming from someone who lives in a tropical paradise, that's quite an honor

Thanks for the props, Kent.

Welcome to Chicago.

I am going to move this thread to the off-topic UMW area for further discussion.
