"Today we are having our
first rest day since Missoula. We are on the train now on our way to downtown
Chicago. The kids will finally get to explore the city. Every night we go
around and tell each other what we look forward to for later in the trip. Every
night for weeks it has been Chicago chicago Chicago! Yesterday we found a series
of bike paths which went on for seventy miles, all the way to Wheaton; a town 25
miles from Chicago. Kiana's aunt and grandma live there. They very generously
opened their home to us, gave us a delicious dinner and breakfast, let us sleep
on their comfy beds and air
mattresses
and gave us suggestions and directions of things to do around the city. This
morning we watched the swimming and cycling in the olympics at their house.
Last night we watched the London opening ceremonies. Tonight, the night of the
28th, we will stay there again and tomorrow we will go on towards South Bend,
Buffalo, New York, and everywhere in between."--Jacob, Trip Leader
