Welcome to a surprise blog! Well it was a surprise for me but DawnO has had this weekend planned for quite a while. She somehow secured tickets to Hamilton the musical in Chicago back in November after many different attempts. I found out her plan on Thursday morning before we made our way to the Calgary airport. Along the way we had a minor setback when our airplane had to make an emergency landing in Grand Forks, North Dakota. There was a wiring issue and they were worried it could start a fire after the burning smell wasn’t going away. Luckily we were on Westjet and they were amazing with how they dealt with the situation. They provided everybody with pizza while they sent us a new plane.
Guess which one was gluten free.
How was it? It was the best show I have had the pleasure to witness. If you ever get a ‘shot’ to see this, don’t throw it away. DawnO even thought it was great. She said she would love to go again. That’s a pretty strong endorsement.
On our last day we finally got a blue sky. Nick and Meg were at work so we toured the city on some bikes. We made our way along the bike trails that border Lake Michigan and eventually found our way to the giant bean!
