Chicago Marathon, Here We Come!! Day One

Chi town here we come, for the big race!  We're super excited!!  Starting out the trip flying first class, always nice!
Ahh, fancy cocktails!

How nice to get a personalized greeting, glad Chicago is glad to see us!

Delta managed to loose one of our suitcases, but clearly when you fly first class they make an effort to find it on the quick.  Met Nana and Aunt Sue at the airport, and went out for yummy Chicago pizza!  Then off to our beautiful hotel, the historic Palmer House.  It was once the biggest hotel in the world, but we picked it because it is only a mile from the finish line!

Now THAT'S a Lobby
 Thankfully, our suitcase arrived in time for us to put on proper clothing for dinner, we dont's want to look like hicks in the big city!  What a lovely time we had at the Chicago Shakespeare Theater, we saw "Ride the Cyclone", an excellent production!
Can't miss that sign!

Dinner at Riva at Navy Pier, then back to the hotel for a good nights sleep, Expo tomorrow!!
