1:26 chicago.skyline

flight from amsterdam to chicago is fine, only a few passengers in the business class and thus we all got personal and attentive attention from the flight attendants.
food wise, we were served with french cuisine prepared by a South African chef... the presentation of the food is not too photogenic but the taste of all the dishes are up to expectation. i like the starter (salmon and fish mousse) is presented like a piece of patisserie, the roulade braised lamb taste great though lacking on presentation. the passion fruit with pumpkin seeds dessert is delicious too.

it is definitely spring in chicago, at least today though the wind is very chilly... i didn't do much today, neither did I rested. in fact i spent remaining afternoon at john hancock observatory, enjoying the city skyline in the daylight, at the sunset and the stunning night view. here are some photos taken from the top...

me at john hancock tower

waiting and watching the sun goes down

and then the city light up, the view is stunning from 95th floor

finally enjoyed the nigth view, when it gets dark and the city lights up...

i am very tired already but try to sleep at least at 10pm in order to fight the jetlag, so goodnight.
