Chicago Day 1

We haven't been as successful as planned today. First school we visited wasn't quite what Lucy had expected. All a bit oldfashioned and not really well maintained, no school uniforms and a concrete playground. Then we spent a few hours looking on apartments downtown Chicago, which was quiet interesting, but the estate agent hasn't found what Chris really wants yet, so we are going on another tour again on Sunday.

But we have used the public transport throughout the city and suburbs and we have been on top of Sears tower, which was the worlds tallest building until 1998, when Taipeh got a taller one. Unfortunatly the view wasn't that nice, because it got a bit cloudy in the afternoon.

We are just having a break before we go out for dinner and to see the new Cirque du soleil show in Chicago Theatre tonight.
