Well Jonny has filled you in with what happened to our flights, so we have been all pretty tired today. We landed in Chicago at 11:15am and then after being pleasantly surprised that our baggage arrived with us, we tried to bring the hiring of the car forward a day - but the travel agent and the rental company wasn't having any of that so we took the train from the airport into the middle of Chicago as close to the Hotel as we could get.
Once checked in, we took a brief wander around and ate. Then we had a little walk around Lake Michigan before Jonny went back to the hotel, while Gary and I carried on around the town for a while longer and took a few more pictures of Chicago at night - stunning I'm sure you will agree. Chicago seems to be a lot more relaxed in pace, with friendlier locals willing to speak to you at least.
I hope that now we've gotten past all that trouble with the flights, that we won't encounter any more troubles along our travels. Tomorrow we will pick up our rental car and proceed on to St. Louis for 2 nights. I am not sure where we will have internet access along the way - hopefully for most of it - so we will try to keep you as up to date as possible.
Thinking of the last 24 hours, things can only get better.
