Happy Christmas... just a bit late

Happy Christmas and Merry New Years
Not if you start from the top and go down... then i'd be first?

So just came back from chicago for, Windy city was ... windy, no snow on the ground though but it was still windy... very windy. One scene was chunks of ice was being blown of the observatory which was about 100+ stories beside our hotel. chunks meaning pieces of a foot long falling... a very long way... seeing them crash onto some of the cars parked on the street, alarms going off, police blocking the whole street. Fireworks. Finished the Da Vinci code, the book had interesting ideas, now to find out how many of them are actually true, but the book wasn't *the best book of all time...

Now the plane ride back, a flight scheduled for 7:30 was pushed back 2 hours due to the rain... so we wait sitting in a food court, yes unlike torontos one restraunt airport, there was actually a food court with macdonalds, etc... then flight gets delayed for another two hours after that , so 11:30, 12:30 toronto time... and then we finally get onto the plane and it does everything normally until it gets to the runway, then the pilot comes on and tells us that there is a problem with the brake sensor, so back we go for another half an hour or so while they fix it... so finally we leave at 1:00ish toronto time... getting back home at 2:30, taxi back 3;30... fun
