BEING THE TEMP, part 3

Signed up for 4 weeks in the Sears Tower. Not a bad gig... 47th floor this time. Short walk from the train and plenty of time to read enroute. Stayed in the City two nights. I could live there... The express bus travels along the shoreline of Lake Michigan on one side and the Gold Coast lines the other side. There is such a vibrancy and energy... Lots of young and active beautiful people. Lots of dogs--joggers--bikers--runners. A perfect Fall to be young and in the best city in the U.S. Even perfect to be older and in the City.

Can't beat lunchtime at Freshii. The spicey 7 vegetable soup is out of this world. The rice bowls are so satisfying. Check out the website. Cool calorie counter customized to your ingredient choices. This is a Toronto-based restaurant. Great and healthy concept.

This job may extend a week or two, but on November 22nd, we are up-up-and-away to our European adventure. Thanksgiving week in Bratislava, a week in Mougins, France, a week in Marbella, a week in Paris, returning to Central Europe for 2-1/2 weeks. Bratislava, Vienna, and maybe Salzburg and/or Prague, or Budapest again.
