Chicago

We had a great time at my half-brother Will's wedding in Chicago last weekend. A power outage in the middle of the reception made for some nice photo ops.

While leaving JFK on Friday night, we caught some unusual (for us) views of the city. It took us a while to figure out what was what -- the vantage point was a new one for me. In the dark, the skyline isn't as visible, and the stretches of land and water aren't as familiar when seen full-size. The bridges become your point of reference. Here's the only photo that came out:

Honeymooning in Croatia

It took me a day or two to unwind from wedding obsessiveness (the wedding was wonderful, btw -- everything we could have hoped for), but once we made it to a lovely house Derek found on Korcula island, we really enjoyed our honeymoon. Photos are up on Flickr. Although it is picturesque and lovely, Dubrovnik was packed with tourists, which took away from the charm a bit. Korcula was more calm, and we spent our time sampling food at home and in restaurants, trying not to drive off the road and into the Adriatic, wandering around supermarkets (better than any museum, really), and traveling to neighboring islands to swim and explore.
