Oh me, oh my!

Hey guys,
Well since I was last on here Ive been to Detroit for 'mania. What a show, just a shame about the location. Detroit is a hole. No ifs, buts or maybe's. I would feel safer walking through West Br*m wearing my Wolves shirt at 1am than I did walking through downtown Detroit at 5pm. Not a soul about and constantly looking over my shoulder. It didn't help the poor excuse for a hotel I ended up in. Ford Field is a beautiful arena, but its a shame about the location.
Put my hands up for Detroit?? No thanks!
Onto better things I went into downtown Chicago today. I did my bus tour that I was so looking forward to. Learned loads of little things about different areas of the city that although I had read about I didn't know where they were.
I also went for a walk round Millenium Park. Its really beautiful, tranquil and full of unusual stuff like the bean (pictured below). Its actually called Cloud Gate, and was made by a British artist. There's also the Crown Fountain, which is two walls covered in LEDs that make up the face of different people from Chicago.
I had a late lunch and decided to go to Portellos for an authentic Chicago Hot Dog. Its like a mess in a bun with tomato pickle, onion, peppers but no ketchup! Very nice, but I didn't mean to end up there. I was actually looking for another little place, so Ill have to find that out tomorrow.

I think I'm gonna have a quiet night tonight. Order in a pizza maybe, and have a couple of drinks in my room. I really should be eating a bit healthier but I have been good apart from today!! Honest mom, I really have!

Keep it chillin', and don't be illin'
