Buckingham Fountain in Chicago.

Let’s get Andrew drunk!

After the photo shoot Saturday I met with Jen and Andrew downtown to walk through Millennium Park and Grant Park. Who knew it would be so COLD?

There was a wedding party taking photos and the bridesmaids were in big pink dresses. We determined that JoeJoe definitely needs to wear that for her wedding. And Buckingham Fountain was open! Rejoice!

Joe and Alina met up with us too so we headed to Elephant and Castle for dinner. They didn’t have beer on tap and were out of most beers. Not that I cared. My fish and chips were yummy though.

Afterwards we tried to find a bar downtown that was open but failed. Eventually we made our way over to a Bar Louie and had some drinks. For some reason at the end of the night the waiter brought us a free round. Umm, OK? We didn’t mind but were thoroughly confused as to why we were given about $30 worth of drinks on a $60 bill.

Hi, I'm Val. I spent most of my 20s in a standstill, unable to pick which path in life I wanted to take. I wanted the nomadic life of a traveler but also wanted the husband, the condo, and the kitten. Unable to decide which life I wanted more, I did nothing. When I turned 30 I’d had enough of putting my life on hold and decided to start “choosing my figs.” So, I quit my job, bought a one-way ticket to Europe, and traveled for three years. Now I'm back in Chicago, decorating my apartment in all the teal, petting my cats, and planning my next adventure.
