Bye bye Chicago

Sorry guys, I have not been active on the blog lately. 
Because I was busy organizing the move. Yes, we are moving back to Canada at the end of the month.
The time we spent here was short. We arrived in October last year, we experienced only winter which was so cold and long this year. I was 'wow' by the architecture when we arrived and we decided to live in the Loop. This is where I decided to start this blog. We did not have time to discover everything and to enjoy the summer which people say is pretty good here. 
Chicago is a beautiful city with great restaurants, parks, architecture, the river and the old steel bridges, museums, events and the famous subway with elevated tracks. I am going to miss it a little bit but we are happy to leave too.
Here is an homage to our time in Chicago. My view of Chicago in B&W, under the snow and on a sunny day!!








Toronto here we come (back). We lived there for about 5 years. Toronto is a great city too and the countryside is beautiful, like the Muskoka area, a place we used to go to all year round. Toronto has a lot of nice neighborhoods with parks, small coffee shops and local restaurants. Like the Distillery District, The Saint Lawrence Market area, Queen and King West, Mount Pleasant Village... 
Canada is home like France. Toronto, we missed you!!

I am excited for spring in Toronto and looking forward to see my friends for a lot of things like dim sum brunch, sushi, drinks, barbecue party, tea time, shopping, fresh pastries at my favorite bakery, etc...
