O'Hare International Airport - ORD

My owner went to O'Hare Airport to pick up his friend - and he brought me along.  I only got to see around Terminal 5 (this is the international terminal), but it was great to see all the travelers arriving.  It was raining when we got there, but stopped so that I could get a look at all the flags outside.  I like flags, have I told you that before?

Airport #1 for Ollie - hopefully not the last!

Starbucks - Niles, IL

Starbucks once again.  There was a fairly high proportion of people here working on laptops (my owner included).  Not that many people, maybe about six, but four of them were on laptops.

Starbucks #12 for Ollie!

Five Guys - Glenview, IL

Burgers & more burgers!  Five Guys in Glenview - we had a cheesburger with BBQ sauce.  There was also the Coke Freestyle machine here where you can pretty much mix all sorts of different flavors together.  I left a "calling card" on the cork board where others drew pictures and whatnot.

Hmmmm... I've got an idea!

Ollie was here - 3-11-12!

Portillo's - Streamwood

Another Portillo's.  This time it was the pepper and egg sandwich.  Also, this one is decorated in '50s style, rather than the bootlegging style that so many other Portillo's have.  We got yelled at for taking pictures, I'm not sure why.




This is the picture we got yelled at for taking... :|



Portillos #8 for Ollie!

AMC Machesney Park

Another movie!  This one is called The Vow and it's about amnesia.  It also takes place in Chicago, yay!  My owner and I were the only two people in the entire auditorium for this movie.  There was a red band trailer too, my owner says that that's unusual for a PG-13 movie.


Movie #5 for Ollie!








Panchero's - Rockford

Panchero's Mexican Grill, Rockford, IL

Mmm, more tacos!

Regulus Coffee House, Chicago

It's March!  Wow, time flies!

Regulus Coffee House is in the Portage Park neighborhood of Chicago.  I quite enjoyed it there.  My owner bumped the table and spilled his coffee and as he was cleaning it up, the barista came over and helped him out, which was particularly nice of her.

My owner was reading Vivaldi's Virgins while we were here.
