Chicago, day 2.

Our second day in Chicago was one of relaxation!!
We had a bit of a lie in, got ourselves together, and then headed off to the shops ( you can see a theme occuring here, can't you?).
We paid T J Maxx a visit.
Name sound familiar?
That's right, it's JUST LIKE T K Maxx, and you all know how much we love that store!! *

*we've been in America so long that we've started to say store instead of shop. We also now have to use GPS instead of Satnav, and restroom instead of loo. That driving on the right side of the road thing is tending to be a little inconvenient too!

We stocked up on some things we didn't really need, but wanted to buy anyway, just because they were such bargains (or so we told ourselves at the time!), hit a few more stores, then headed back to Jasmine's, as she had to go to work!

Jasmine directed us to a lovely hotel, and we were on our way! The hotel receptionists obviously hadn't seen many English folk before, and were very excited at our arrival. We paid a Chinese takeaway a visit (we were getting pretty sick of fried chicken by this point), snuck it into our hotel room, and nom'd down on some ridiculous portions of first class foods (we both somehow managed to order chicken....again)!
