Destination #1: Washington D.C.
We also visited the Holocaust Museum. It is deeply touching/troubling. Both of us left feeling completely drained, but glad we had gone.
Destination #2: Atlantic City
Destination #3: Philadelphia
We headed to the historic city of Philadelphia, not for the rich culture, history or food, but for the shopping. Tax- free clothing led us to the world's 3rd largest mall, King of Prussia. We shopped until I developed blisters, then decided to head to the next destination.
Sadly, it was time to begin heading home.
Destination #4: Detroit
We drove all night and spent the night in the worst hotel of the ones we stayed in. But we were tired, so it didn't matter. We spent the New Year driving, a metaphorical new beginning, limitless possibilities, the open road.
And finally, back to Chicago. And the road trip was complete, save for Kris's drive back to Ohio. We bonded again, we fought, we laughed, and sang Aretha Franklin songs at the top of our lungs. It was a great time, and I am thrilled that it all worked out as perfectly as it did.

Your sister is hot!
Thank you, yes, I realize my sister is hot. Though, one can only live so long with being told repeatedly that their sibling is the attractive one of the two, before developing a complex. It has officially been 29 years, and while I am glad she is gorgeous, I am tired of hearing about it.
Nonetheless, thank you for your inspired comments.
And here I thought choosing to go to D.C. in such an important time in our nations history would elicit some thought provoking comments.
Sigh.

I want to thank you again. I had so much fun it truly was the best gift I have ever been given and it wasn't because of the places I went but of whom I got to experience them with. Next destination: ??
Miss you big sis.
p.s. That anonymous commenter was actually me.
lol ok not really but it would be funny if it was me right?
