The boys: Max, Joe and Opa (that's me) were dropped off at PDX on Monday morning for the trip to Chicago. Grandma (that's Sherry) was already there for a high school reunion (I'm not saying what year). The flight was on time, until a few minutes after we arrived, at which point it was delayed 2 hours because of weather in Chicago. But they managed to get a departure slot a bit earlier, and at about 6PM Chicago time, the boys had landed!
First stop, after dropping our bags at the hotel, was Pizzeria Due for the famous Chicago deep-dish pizza! We met cousins Jake, Jan and Isaac Bloom there (which is becoming a tradition) and shared drinks, salads and pizza.
The first bite, below, and Max and Joe both pledged their allegiance to the best pizza they've ever had. And the plate-size chocolate chip cookie covered in chocolate sauce and whipped cream wasn't bad, either.
Bed was a welcomed sight for this grandpa at the end of day one in Chicago.
