Saturday, January 31st – Saturday, February 7th, 2026 World Tour Days: 456 – 463 Instead of waking up in Chicago to a relaxed day hanging out with friends it was yet another 4:00am wake up for our make up flight.

It was fun walking the aisles and seeing all the unique food items. With our over-priced snacks we walked The Grove,…

I wouldn’t say it was a smooth process exiting but we made it. Once out of the airport the journey was stress free. As we lived in NYC for 4 years back at the start of our relationship, we have taken the airport train and metro countless times.
