San Francisco and Chicago

23 November 2009

Left SFO am for Chicago via Phoenix the trip was to take all day and I arrived into the city of Chicago at 8:30 pm. On arrival I booked into the Courtyard Marriott and found somewhere to eat and then after studying how to get to Greyhound bus station to meet Greg the next morning grabbed some well needed sleep around 11:00 pm.

Up early the next morning and traveled to the bus Na to meet Greg at 05:45 and with the coach on time we were soon back into the hotel for some catch up sleep until around Noon. Later that day we set off on our own to explore the city of Chicago. During the next few days I saw Navy Pier, the home of the famous architect Howard Wright at Oak Park, Union rail station, a delightful presentation of Jazz, great meals at the Bar and Grills around our area, and commuting on the underground rail system, and the overhead rail as well as the road bus systems. There was so much to see and not enough time to do it. Really was an exciting destination at Chicago
