I am fortunate to have traveled to many cities in the world. From Manila to Chicago, from Paris to Dubai, from Singapore to Cairo. Places that are my anchor, for the stories I tell. Stories that, in turn, lend meaning to these places. Not only mine, but also those of friends. our journeys, our journals.

Celebrating July 4th at Millennium Park
Karen, Eva, her friend Alexa, and I headed downtown Chicago on July 4th to watch fireworks by Lake Michigan and celebrate the holiday. Millennium Park was of course one of our visits. Tall faces, like monoliths, are a bit of an oddity, especially men who look creepy. But because they're animated, that is, occasionally smiling, blinking and spouting water, they're fun for us families. We've had a relatively cool and rainy summer, so we Chicagoans aren't so desperate for cooling. Still it was warm and sunny enough on that afternoon to enjoy the splashing and wetness.
