I'm going to Chicago tomorrow!

Via:

local bus to Greyhound to Porter shuttle bus to ferry to airplane to elevated subway to [livejournal.com profile] melted_snowball. Total time: 7 hours, I hope.

I wasn't able to integrate bicycle, rickshaw, or pony into the mix. Yet. We'll see about the return trip.

God I know trips like that. *hug* I'd take an 18 hour direct flight over than any day.

Enjoy your time with your boy.

If you are going into downtown Toronto, you have to be able to squeeze a rickshaw in there!! ;-)

You should also be able to throw segway (http://citysegwaytours.com/) and horse drawn carriage (http://www.chicagotraveler.com/chicago-carriage-rides.htm) into that mix, if you're so inclined. Also, taxi and double decker bus. I would not suggest kayak (http://www.kayakchicago.com/), however.

6 vehicles sounds pretty low for flying to another city. But the Greyhound segment is unfortunate. For you flying from Pearson would be nicer.

On the dimmer side, I forgot my laptop.

On the brighter side, this lounge (Porter, downtown Toronto) is great. A dozen or more 24-inch iMacs, lots of comfy chairs, coffee and juice, etc.

On the worse side, I don't trust their mac security: they haven't updated the OS in quite a while, and it would be trivial for someone to put a keyboard sniffer in place.

But hey, free's free. and it's charging my phone for me. :)

Ahahahaha crap...I actually was really wanting to go to Chicago today and spend the weekend, and I didn't even know you were going to be there. The AmeriCorps team up in Chicago was doing THIS today. But, as noted in my email last night...NO TIME NO TIME NO TIME. :(
