Chicago Meetup
« on: June 27, 2016, 05:22:42 PM »
Mr Jules came all the way from London just to have lunch with me.  Actually he is on a 'round the world trek by rail.  Chicago was is second stop in the USA.  We met at my office in Chicago, had lunch, then I took him to Union Station via Water Taxi for the second leg of his rail journey.

That's awesome!!
People are not limited by the circumstance that they are born in. They are limited by the size of their dreams. Show them that their dreams can have no limits and in turn their accomplishments can be limitless.

It was great to meet up with you, Red. And our lunchtime sly talk, food and water taxi ride was a great send off from Chicago.

Safely back in London after an extraordinary sly bald guy global adventure. Was pleased to be able to keep the head slick bald all the way. Making a film of the trip, which will be on YouTube in the next few days.

Sounds like you had a great trip Nick.  Look forward to the video.  And sly all the way!!

Did you get any impression of the extent of slyness in different countries along your route.

Good question. I think the USA has the most slyness.
