From Indy to Windy / De Indy al viento




Welcome wonderful ones and than you for visiting.  Last time you saw some shots of my trip to the beach.  In today's post, we go a bit more urban with a look at some shots from around Chicago, Illinois, also known as The Windy City.  On this visit, I only drove through the downtown portion on the interstate, but I had quite a bit of fun in the suburbs :)


Bienvenidos los maravillosos y gracias por visitar. La última vez que vio algunas fotos de mi viaje a la playa. En el post de hoy, nos vamos un poco más urbanos con un vistazo a algunas tomas de Chicago, Illinois, también conocida como la ciudad del viento. En esta visita, sólo pasé a través de la porción centro la interestatal, pero tuve un poco de diversión en los suburbios :)






These three items are from the gift shop at the Rainforest Cafe.  It was my first time eating there and I found it very cute but also quite pricey.  The gift shop is free to visit :)


Estos tres elementos son de la tienda de regalos en el Rainforest Cafe. Era mi primera vez comer allí y me pareció muy lindo pero también bastante caro. La tienda de regalos es libre de visitar :)




The cafe dwells with Woodfield Mall, a giant palace of consumerism filled with all sorts of great fashion, such as the above items I found at Macy's.

The main purpose for our trip was to attend a WNBA game, women's professional basketball, between the hometown Chicago Sky and the visiting Los Angeles Sparks.  I am very passionate about women's basketball and was so happy to get to see it played in a place new to me.  It was a very entertaining game!


El propósito principal de nuestro viaje era para asistir a un partido de la WNBA, el baloncesto profesional de la mujer, entre la ciudad natal de Chicago Sky y los que visitan Los Angeles Sparks. Soy un apasionado de baloncesto femenino y estaba tan feliz de llegar a ver que desempeñó en un lugar nuevo para mí. Fue un partido muy entretenido!





These sights were found across the border into my home state of Indiana.  The top is from an outlet mall (I spend much time at malls :D ) and the bottom from a sporting goods store, Bass Pro Shop.


Estos lugares se encuentran a través de la frontera en mi estado natal de Indiana. La parte superior es de un centro comercial (me paso mucho tiempo en centros comerciales: D) y el fondo de una tienda de artículos deportivos, Bass Pro Shop.




And speaking of Indiana, here it is :)  I live right in the middle, Indianapolis.  This was found at a rest area along the highway.  The green spots on the map indicate other rest areas around the state.


Y hablando de Indiana, aquí está :) Yo vivo justo en el medio, de Indianápolis. Este fue encontrado en un área de descanso a lo largo de la carretera. Las manchas verdes en el mapa indican otras áreas de descanso en todo el estado.




Me sporting a tiny (women's) hat I found at Bass Pro shop (they also have fashion.)  I am thinking I am almost making it work :)  It was very wonderful of you to visit, I appreciate it so much.  And thanks a million for the very sweet comments.  Wishing you a wonderful start to your weekend.  Many hugs for each of you :)


Me luciendo un diminuto sombrero (de las mujeres) que encontré en Bass Pro Shop (también tienen la moda.) Pienso que estoy casi hacer que funcione :) Fue muy maravilloso que visitar, se lo agradezco mucho. Y un millón de gracias por los comentarios muy dulces. Le deseamos una excelente manera de empezar el fin de semana. Muchos abrazos para cada uno de ustedes :)

  8. Ahh Chicago has been on my list of places to visit for so long. Maybe now that I'm moving to the northern hemisphere I might be able to make it there! Great photos.

  9. Nice travel diary here, but it seems like such a long way to go to see a basketball match but if you're a big fan I guess it's more than worth it and it seems like you had a lot of fun on the journey, apart from enjoying the game. With respect to you comment about favourite cities. Australia has never been tempting to me but I totally love Madrid and I'm sure you would love it too. It's a beautiful city. I don't know why you say you will never get to go because if you ever get the chance you really should and you know what they say..... NEVER say NEVER..... hahaha.

    1. Yes, and we are in early stages of a plan for a longer trip for a basketball game. So silly but it is my passion :) And I promise you, if the stars align and I somehow can put any money together I will be showing up in Spain for sure. So many kind people I have gotten to know from there I think maybe I would fit in and be welcomed. May be a one way trip even :) Thanks so much, darling :) xoxoxoxo
