Greetings from The Talbott Hotel in Chicago.
Tim & Jimmy are on their way home while I check out this lovely hotel on East Delaware Place.
So last night we wrapped up filming at The Peninsula on the balcony with a cigar and a drink.
So on travelling down to breakfast in the elevator, I was surrounded by the tallest people I had ever met! They were all members of a Floridian professional basketball team. They were very polite ... unlike many people I have met recently.
This morning we headed off to Montopoli in Dearborn. The tailor here - Jeff Landis - has been in the business for 20 years. His "boutique" is very high-end. He turned me from a scruff-ball into a dapper-dan! It WAS a fun morning ...
The boys left me and I checked out ... & in ...
I had dinner with friends at a lovely Japanese - Sunda.
The Chicago show was an undoubted success. I love this City and could easily live here. Everything is "close". Highlights are too many BUT the Art Institute and cooking with Charlie Trotter were excellent experiences. Kim from Moet-Hennessy made our lives very happy ... and the team from http://www.gochicago.com/ ensured that the shoot was smooth and that every resource available WAS available! Thank you guys.
Have a couple of days left to enjoy Chicago!
Now in hotel --- sleep --- two days of relax and review to come up.
