I have posted before that Mimi and I took an impromptu trip to Chicago to meet up with JieJie, see the city and bring Jiejie and the kitties home.
I made a reservation at a great boutique hotel called "Hotel Monaco".
This hotel is hip,centrally located and accepts almost every kind of pet.
Mimi and I drove into town checked in, pretended to raid the very expensive honor bar(then went across the street to 7eleven).
We soaked on our lovely atmosphere and anxiously awaited Jiejie's arrival by bus.
We also arranged to meet with my darling nephew Bobby, who lives in the city.
We had dinner at an Italian restaurant by Wrigley field. Mimi spent her first time in a taxi, and also a subway.
The cubs were playing that night so Bobbies neighborhood was akin to Spring Break in Cancun.... very crazy. The food was great and we made it home without any Cubs fan shenanigans(it was a little dicey).
The city was absolutely gorgeous.
We spent the next morning on Michigan Avenue and then headed off on a last minute jaunt to Madison WI.
