Twenty Five Degrees Made an Extraordinary October Day in Chicago

Apparently, Clerg sneaks out of bed early in the morning to take photos like this. Some hours later we went out to enjoy the day, which, unlike our air conditioned unit, turned out to be about thirty degrees in the sun.

We rented bikes and headed to South. Because on a Saturday like this we were not the only ones who had this idea, the trip was less stress-free than it looks. However, the city did show itself from its best sides and here is a tiny selection for you.

Our bikes on a break while Clerg is taking photos.

He had taken along both of his cameras.

In Tallinn, boats have names like Linda or Helena. Here, the owners are more post-modern about their rides.

Returning to the city three hours later the trees along the Lakeshore Drive had turned completely yellow.

We saw five bridal parties in Grant Park taking photos, posing, smiling, best men drinking beer. Greetings to Andrea, Ämmi and Sabine.

The couple below was sitting on a bench holding hands and it was all very romantic. Tomorrow is our first anniversary and it made a perfect scenery.

They say October will have never been that warm and the coming winter never that cold.

We`ll see.
