Travel - Wellington to Chicago

The trip begins!

Finally I escape the bleakness of mid winter Wellington and the howling southerlies and rain and hail. Nice to catch up with Stu at Auckland Airport for a quick beer and chat.

I have also had a chance to try out my new laptop - everything is working superbly. The Vaio laptop keyboard is the most tactile keyboard I have used. Mmmm .. did I really say that. Must be time to log off, have a red wine and wait until I actually have something interesting to report.

Spoke to Mike in Chicago - he won gold in the Gay Games in his squash comp but his day was marred by a $US200 phone bill at the Travelodge Hotel. Can you beleive a charge of $US34 for a one minute call from Chicago to New Zealand.

Any way adios for now!

Hi Mark, it was great to see your uploaded photos, we were happy to see Mike's travel shirt made it on this journey. Have a great time, and we look forward to seeing all your photos on the website when you return to your lovely home (the "Mike and Mark Hotel"). A big hi to Mike, Cheers Paul and Amanda

I do like the basic venue---but Day 3 in Chicago is just too busy. You cannot do all those things in one day unless you walk in and out of Navy Pier and the Field Museum. With parking on the pricey side, its not a good move either!
