Seeing Chicago from the air as descended for landing was like looking out onto a twinkling, sparkling river of light. Amazing. Quick flight too – only a little over 2 hours. I’m now in a shuttle van off to the hotel. Feels nice and crisp up here. Nice and cool. I am anxious to see what the city is like and visit the Museum of Contemporary art tomorrow, and hook up with Dan and see Northwestern’s campus. Man this guy is driving fast! Didn’t get to sit right next to Krissy on the way up, but we were only one row apart and like I said was a smooth ride. 12 minutes to downtown… Hopefully I will be snapping some shots while I’m up here with my camera attachment and putting them up on nathanchase.com – happy april fool’s day everyone!
