On Friday evening we met with some friends of Sandra’s for dinner in Oak Park
for an very enjoyable last evening in Chicago. After a good dinner and some beer
and wine we said good-bye and retired for a good nights sleep.
Saturday started very dull and rainy so that it was not very hard to say good-bye to
the windy city
We both enjoyed a bit a bigger breakfast then usual because of the journeys ahead of us:
Sandra to the east, I to the west.
Again good-byes with the promise not to wait another 4 years for a visit.
A cab whizzed me to downtown Chicago to Union Station where ( thank God ! ) I could
already check-in my bags for my 2:15 pm departure to Whitefish/Montana. The Amtrak
steward, as it turned out, was from Whitefish and gave me some very useful tips and
suggested his favourite steak joint. Let’s see.
First I have an interesting train ride in front of me.
Scheduled arrival time of train "7/27 The Empire Builder” is on Sunday at 8:56 pm Mountain time.
