First update for a while. Apologies, I’ve just been swamped. So what’s been happening? Well, lots of work behind the scenes as another production run gets under way, plus I’ve been doing lots of interesting freelance work.
Most importantly though, we’ve been getting extremely excited about our business/pleasure trip to Chicago! Just over a week to go now and as anyone who knows us would guess, we’ve mapped out virtually every moment!
That’s not as sad or regimented as it sounds. Our typical activity is very relaxed and primarily consists of plotting a route through the city by coffee shop! So, all we’ve done is allocate areas to each day…and there are many to take in.
There have been many research revelations. Aside from discovering the extent of Chicago’s gang culture (should you stray into the wrong area) we’ve also been blown away by the sheer scale of the city…
The three ’neighbourhoods’ we are particularly drawn to in the North are collectively bigger than our own town plus the city next door! Lincoln Park is far larger than Central Park and Lake Michigan is bigger than Croatia!
I’m sure to be banging on about Chicago more in the coming days and weeks and you can expect updates during our trip plus some photos at the start of June!
