{Amazing weekend with Jana!}

Warning.. Lot of pictures from our amazing last weekend with my 3rd cousin Jana. She spent long weekend with us before she left back to her country Slovakia

Friday
On the mini roadtrip

We went out on the mini road roadtrip to see the historical bridge after my friend Sandra and her husband was just there with her parents in law the other day. Click--> Dave's blog~ 19th Century Giant Wheel Re-incurnated . To read some history. It was beautiful there and just barely missed the fall's color in background. We stopped at HotRod for lunch. Then we stopped in Crown Point to check out the covered bridge. My dad said not even realized where we found this covered bridge just this past Spring that close by.

Meyer's castle at the evening

We all had delicious dinner at Meyer Castle. There were no mistakes with the choices we ordered for dinner. We made it to have dessert with homemade whipped cool with homemade ice cream to share. This place was once someone's castle home then changed to the public restaurant. (can have wedding and parties there)

Saturday
@ The Millennium Park

In the pictures at the Millennium Park. You can see we all had so much fun on that day! Jana was so amazing with things we can find at that place. At The Crown Fountain, of course the water has been turned off for winter. So little water on ground perfect for fun shot I did for her. It was also so beautiful with background! We made it across to walk by water. Weather was so nice and so clear and blue sky in Chicago.

Saturday
@ Navy Pier

After Millennium Park we all went to Navy Pier for lunch. Yes, Jana did need some help when we order our lunch. She only need some words to look up to see what foods are in meals what she likes to order for lunch. While we were waiting for meals I took Jana to get in the Photo booth and it was fun! Jana was confused and awkward because it was very first experience for her. But during and at end Jana had fun inside the photo booth. Of course we got our own photo stripes to keep.. (yes we went for photo shooting twice and they come out with 2 stripes, perfect to share) Last thing I knew I had to take Jana on the Ferris Wheel. And it was another amazing thing to Jana to see it herself.

Being silly

A little fun where we want to be silly. Jana is in the pictures show she was in ILLINOIS and INDIANA states. As well she has been in Wisconsin. Just a silly pic of us "being kids" at my work.

Sunday
Final goodbye lunch

Before Uncle Tim took Jana to airport for overnight flight back to her country. We all went out for late lunch at this place. Place where my dad often go for lunch or dinner with his friends. Jana enjoyed her lunch and taking more than enough of pictures. One thing we have learned that She dislike ketchup! Of course it was sad moment when we all had to say final goodbye as she left with Uncle Tim. We were more than glad we spent long weekend with Jana at our place. Jana enjoyed herself lot here too. Just everything has been amazing to Jana. Thank you for your time to read and look up pictures from our long amazing weekend.

Thank you for looking up this long post. Hope you enjoy reading about Jana's visiting here.

Have a great weekend!!
