After living here for 15 years previously, bumming around Chicago as a tourist is pretty surreal. It’s cold as heck but I miss this place.

We still have lunch tomorrow before heading back to Wisconsin, so it’s possible. The wife has been locked in on the Mexican food though.

The wife decided we were going for Japanese soufflé pancakes for breakfast, so my lunch was a crummy Starbucks wrap on our way to Wisconsin. Had an excellent bento box for dinner though.

Landed back in Melbourne at 5am this morning. Home by 7am. It’s felt like 4pm ever since; it’s only 12:50pm currently. Jet lag is weird when you get back pre dawn (used to landing in the late afternoon or evening).
