After a very pleasant trip to the USA to visit friends and relatives in and around Chicago, we’re back in the UK. Time to get on with our various winter jobs and to catch up with our friends over here. Meanwhile here are some pics from our trip to Chicago.

Due to the weather – it was snowing much of the time, I took lots of pics of brightly-coloured food of the kind you can’t get here. Food was high up the list on this trip as a central theme of the visit was Thanksgiving. Between that, Black Friday and Cyber Monday we had lots of reasons to go shopping.

Lots and lots of snow in Chicago…

But it didn’t snow all of the time – which let folk put up some great Christmas lighting.
