So despite the embarrassment (John being most vocal) we stepped into the lobby of the Westin with Sinatra playing on my phone. Had an amazing day in Chicago. Quick dinner on Michigan Ave watching all the foot traffic. Including a five person band. Asked by at least ten people for money (pan handling was on every corner and then some) the waitress at the restaurant told the story of how disrespectful some are while others who truly need help do not ask. One story was about a man she gave five dollars to every day. He was in a wheelchair. After months. She saw him on the train. Carrying his wheel chair to his spot where he claimed to be handicapped. On a positive note Millennium park with 8000 people watching Purple Rain was pretty powerful. Then then off to Willis tower. Topped the night off with a two mile bike ride back to the hotel. Gorgeous night and nice guys.
