Please Keep Feet on Floor

Chicago METRA trains are quite cool. This is my preferred method of getting to the heart of the windy city!

Up is Down @ The Grand Lux Cafe

I have posted a couple of other images from this wonderful Chicago restaurant. The food is excellent, the menu is varied, the portions HUGE, and, the service courteous and prompt. The atmosphere is elegant, fun, and maintains just the right amount of a casual feel. Wow! I sound like commercial! This is a favorite gathering place for the Garcia clan.

the Bean

The BeanCalled the Bean because of it’s shape, Cloud Gate has become the signature sculpture of Millenium Park along the lakeshore opposite the grand Chicago skyline. The bean makes an appearance in the movie Source Code. You can read about this amazing sculture here: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Cloud_Gate
