Day 206 Buckingham Fountain

Day 206

My camera lens broke and I am amazed I was able to get this picture.  I went to a point and shoot for the rest of our trip. I learned a valuable lesson.  Bring more than one lens, and another camera when traveling.  Off to Nikon it goes.

Day 205 Sam Not Allowed In Wrigley Field, Cubs Lose

Day 205

Although Sam made tons of new friends and posed for 100's of pictures outside Wrigley Field.  Security was waiting for us at the turnstile at the gate.  She had a very expensive ticket for her own seats 15 rows from the first base line.  Security gave a lame excuse, and she was checked with Guest Services.  Waaaaah!   And the Cubs lost.

This was taken with my new Fugi point and shoot, as my giant lens broke.  Thanks Bob.

Day 203 Sweet Home Chicago

Day 203

Our first night in Chicago we went to Kiki's Bistro.  A French restaurant that I've been going to for
years.  French champagne, pomme frites, and crepe suzette filled our tummies and delighted our taste buds.  Kiki the owner posed with Sam.  He's a class act!  Thanks for the champagne and wine Kiki! What a great start to a wild weekend.

If you are in Chicago, don't miss this gem.  http://www.kikisbistro.com/

Day 202 Farewell Berlin

Day 202

Sam II closes the door of Jurgen Steinau's workshop.  She loved every minute in Berlin.  Judith and Jurgen were great hosts.  I must say I was spoiled rotten by their home cooking. Jurgen had breakfast ready for me every morning.  He even got up at 3am to take me to the airport. 

I will see her again in Paris.  Ciao Sam II!
