Chicago, Illinois
Batten down the hatches. I'm in Chicago, The Windy City. According to trivia, this moniker stems from political campaigns and rivalries between other major cities. Think wind bag and full of hot air. Chicago has had its fair share. Holly scyscrapers though! Lyn's a Witchy Woman has coaxed me to another wee bit of adrenalin-rushing with The Sky Deck. Once again I shall submit myself to be hoisted aloft, swinging above it all in a harness. What dizzying heights? I shakingly go out on the ledge on the 103rd floor of Willis Tower. I have to battle with my eyes who seem content to remain squeezed shut. Even when I manage to force them open I squint. Through that limited focus I cannot but marvel at the cityscape looming beneath me. I do detect a wind at that lofty height and it wasn't necessarily the nerves that caused my eyes to tear. A similar attraction exists in Toronto, Ontario, Canada. It's known as The Edge Walk at the CN Tower. Height seems to impress almost everybody. I apologize to the other hanger-ons. My long hair kinda whipped around as if it intended to vacate my scalp. I'm somewhat certain that the sight of me whooping and spinning with whirling-dervish-tresses has been shared as an online post.Such is the life of a tourist. Why not cap today's activities with 10-pin bowling ala Fred Flintstone? I now know that the tippy-toe approach is not easy to execute. The immense bowling balls did feel like heavy boulders. And the constant noise... wow! Wham! Crash! Thud! Thunder!! Sorry, Canadian here, so I must compulsively apologize once more. i may have been shouting and asking what? a few too many times.
