Aqui segue, especialmente para os meus amados familiares e amigos que estao longe, o meu primeiro contato com o mundo virtual. Papai e mamae jah me disseram que terei que ser nerd, pois so assim poderei manter contato constante. Espero que curtam!

To keep in touch with those who do not live close by... I guess being a baby from an immigrant couple is not an easy task, and mom and dad have already let me know that I have no other option but be a computer/tech nerd. Enjoy!

Trip to Chicago

This May long-weekend, mom, dad and I took a trip to Chicago. Mom had a 2-day course in the city, and we drove a couple of days earlier to visit the windy City. I had a blast.

ON our first day (half a day), we started exploring the Magnificent Mile, Navy pier and ended at the Hancock Tower for a view of the city skyline. I loved it! At the Navy Pier, mom and I rode the carrousel and I had the famous Rainbow ice-cream. Our day ended with the famous deep-dish pizza at Giordano's.

Our second day was dedicated to explore the downtown core, Millennium Park with the famous Bean Sculpture, and the pretty awesome park for kids, where, by the way, I got lost. There were way too many kids at the park, and I took off to a different play structure without telling my parents. They pretty quickly realized I went missing, and luckily found me quickly. Our day ended at an really great Italian Restaurant, Quartino. Mom and dad said it was the best Italian cuisine they have had outside of Italy.

My third and fourth days was dedicated to a boys-time, as mom stayed at her course. Dad and I took the subway and we went to Field Museum and Planetarium. I loved both of these places. At the end of the fourth day, mom met us at the planetarium, and we went to the 12th beach and for a walk along the water and the Grant Park, where we ate the famous Chicago Hot Dogs.

Now we are packed up and ready to head back to our home sweet home.
