Shopping Along Magnificent Mile

2008-07-25T23:11:20Z

The weather was overcast, so it was the perfect day for shopping along the famous Magnificent Mile. These were some of the sights we saw along the way. :)

N. Michigan Avenue, Chicago

My first trip to Chicago with my friend Jen. The concierge at the Hotel Monaco recommended we begin our day at Millenium Park. We then worked our way up N. Michigan Avenue, just a bit. What a wonderful surprise it was. Thanks Ryan. :)

I'll be back......

Gone a few days. :)

La Famiglia (some of them anyway)

Here are a few photos of some of the family I visited on this trip. Unfortunately, I did not have my camera with me a few times and did not shoot everyone I saw. Maybe next time. :)

These are some shots taken while driving along the road to Laurignano and to Cerisano. :)

Cerisano (CS)

The town of Cerisano is where my father grew up. It's a very old town that hasn't changed much, except for the expected new construction popping up around. My aunt still lives in the house she moved into when she first got married, about 75 years ago. :)

From the Balcony (CS)

After moving out of Domanico, my mother's family moved into this apartment in the city of Cosenza - for the past 60 years. These are some of the things I saw from the balcony each day. :)

Domanico (CS), Calabria

This is the town where my mother was born and raised. It is very old and she says that it hasn't changed much in 60 years since she's been gone. :)

I'm Off.....

I'm off to Italia for two weeks - the land of the Fiat 500. :)

Let me introduce you to....
