Off for the weekend

I'm taking the weekend "off". Lisa flew in from New York yesterday and we are spending the weekend at the W Hotel Chicago Lakeshore.

Had an excellent dinner last night at Russian Tea Time on Adams with a classmate (and her husband) of Lisa's from the LEEP program at UIUC.

Tonight...well, tonight I was supposed to make the plans and managed to pick a restaurant, but kind of screwed up on the reservation end. We ended up eatingn at Kamehachi on Ontario near the hotel. I had a chicken-soy glazed main, Lisa had sushi and some rolls. The food was great. We snuck in by accepting a table in the smoking section. The air quality wasn't too bad until just as we were leaving when a flock of smokers entered the bar.

Frisket is staying with us in the hotel. She has stayed here before and acts like she knows her way around.
