someone must come along and hurt you.

The Baseball Game





And this is what a baseball game looks like...




Not the most interesting game and definitely not the most exciting either. But I had fun eating peanuts and drinking beer. As always, if it’s a new experience I’m happy to try it!!

My first baseball game!!


Vs




I am very exited because tomorrow I’ll go to my first baseball game!!
Chicago white Sox Vs Cleveland Indians
Even though I don’t know much about baseball, I think it is an important part of the American culture and I definitely wanted to experience it. Apart from that this is an important game for me; because the few things I know about the game, I learned them watching the movie major liege, which is based on the Indians. On the other hand, the Sox are the world champions and they are from Chicago, so I think that the whole thing makes sense.
I’ll tell all about the game in my next post!!

Summer in Chicago!!

I felt in love with Chicago in wintert ime, so it wasn't because of the weather... Everybody says that Chicago during winter sucks (which I don’t agree with) but the summer is just great!! And apparently in that part they are right.


On Sunday I had a very good time with my new friend Rebecca; we went downtown to north Av beach on lake Michigan. I was never on a beach in a lake and it was great!! And it’s not any lake… in this one you don’t see the other side at all, so if you didn’t know better, one could easily see it as an ocean, but with very cold and sweet water. The fact of being in a beach like this, with such an amazing skyline on your back is just great. I think no other city in the world has this kind of contrast.

After wise we went to the music fest, which was great to and had dinner in a very nice restaurant.
I really had a great day!!
