Chicago to Middlebury



Sunday, 5th April: Chicago – Middlebury

Lazy morning after a late night

Brekkie at the argo tea shop across the road from the hotel.

Walked around downtown

Julia decided to spend hours, almost days, at CVS

To the anish kapoor bean and on to the art institute of Chicago.

On the way to CBOT (Chicago Board of Trade) it started to hale and then rain –saw mies van der rohe post office

Walked back to car and back on the road

Down to Middlebury, in the amish county of northern Indiana

Found beehive B&B on the internet and rang to get a room

Herb and Treva welcomed us into their home. It felt like staying with old friends as they were so friendly. We were introduced to their grand daughter Elyse and her fiancee. Evening spent chatting around the kitchen table where we learnt about the local area and the Amish.
