We got up rather early (for us) and hit the road to Chicago. Today is another long driving day, but we're driving through Canada on the northern side of Lake Erie. The Canadian part was nice and relaxing as drives go, but the price of gas was outrageous. We paid nearly $5/gal for gas there.
We made it back into the US with no problems and landed in Detroit. I don't think I'll go back to Detroit.
We were making good time to be able to drop our stuff off at the hotel in Chicago and then go to the Cubs game. Then we hit Chicago traffic. Lots of toll roads and stop-and-go. This city seems to rival LA with traffic problems. In retrospect, we should have just driven straight to Wrigley Field and then checked into the hotel later. We didn't and we missed the first couple of innings of the game, but when we made it to the game, it was awesome!
It was a good game (the Cubs won!), nice weather, and everyone seemed to have fun. We got back to the room around midnight and fell out. Tomorrow, whatever parts of Chicago we can squeeze in.
