Back in Chicago - Rediscovering the city and its sites

I was back in Chicago for a meet up with several of my highschoold friends who now call North America their home.

I also took this chance to checkout some of my favorite landmarks which I was seeing for the second time and a few I have not seen before. I heart Chicago.

Back in California's Central Coast - A relaxing weekend in Santa Barbara

We took Friday off, packed some clothes for the weekend, our sunglasses and off we went driving down south to Santa Barbara. 

As always, it was a delight to the senses to be in Santa Barbara.
