Showing Mum & Dad around Chicago
27 May 2009
We’ve had a lovely few days showing Ma & Pa Walshie around Chicago. We’ve done a load of touristy stuff and we’ve had really lovely weather.
They brought a load of UK expat rations with them — we now have a dedicated chocolate cupboard — most exciting of which was the Robinsons squash and, of course, the proper chocolate.
And of course they love their new grandcat — Pepper likes to give Gamdad a nice chew now and then!
We went to see the new Star Trek movie at the iMax on it’s last day last Thursday — Nick, we did try and get the sign into mum’s handbag but, despite her carrying ‘the Tardis’ we couldn’t quite fit it in!
Anyway, we have a few more days of fun and hope the weather holds.
