My Visit to the Chicago Consulate

The drive to Chicago was not that bad, but I never ever ever ever ever again want to deal with city traffic like that again. My visit to the third largest city in the US was completely overwhelming when it came to dealing with the traffic - it was unbelievable. Luckily, once we got to our hotel we took advantage of the public transportation and bussed everywhere we needed to go. I successfully got to the consulate and turned in all of my documentation and am now going to patiently await the arrival of my passport with my temporary visa stamp so I am ready to officially enter France.

In addition to businnes, David and I also made some time to sight-see and enjoy the city, including the awesome (and free!!!) Lincoln Park Zoo. I have included a picture here. It was taken just outside the zoo entrance at this pretty pond thing with the skyline in the background. Unfortunately our photographer missed the skyline. Oh well, at least David and I are in it!
