On Tuesday June 8th, we flew to Chicago to stay with Keith and Lisa Schwingendorf in La Porte, Indiana.


La Porte Indiana.

The house of Keith and Lisa, with son Ryan at the door.

Ryan, in the background, strides into Lake Michigan, with Jessica and Lisa in the foreground.

David and Keith Schwingendorf watch from the promenade.

Grandma Laverne Schwingendorf (aged 87) with Sue and David on her deck outside her house.

Ryan and Laverne drive in the golf cart to lake Saugany a short distance away.

Ryan, Sue, Lisa and David swim in the lake.

Lisa and David swim out to the middle.

David goes to Fast Eddie's for a $9 haircut.

He has to wait to be serviced.

But he's serviced real fast ...

Back at chez Schwingendorf, Sue gets her brain round American cooking.

Off to the fair in Michigan City, to see the Mega-Drop ...

... and for David, Ryan and Sue to have a gentler ride.

Looking out of the train window on the South Shore train on the way to ...

... Chicago.

The ferris wheel on Navy Pier ...

with Jessica, Lisa and David up in the air.

Jessica riding high ...

... and the view of Chicago.

Ryan's drawings of President Reagan's Funeral.

We have a last meal out going nowhere.

... and are now here....
