In the morning, we went swimming with Bill, Dana and family at their pool in Lincolnwood. In the evening, I took the kids to Whole Foods for dinner while Jack went out again with the boys (hmmm, trend?). We took the 'L' to North and Clybourn - the same stop where we used to get off to take Jacqui to the British School. The area has changed so much though that when I got out of the 'L' station - I lost my bearings. It is really gentrified in the 4 years we've been gone! The Whole Foods there had just opened before we left and it is not like your average Whole Foods! It huge and has a number of themed, made-to-order take-out restaurants in the store. There are lots of choices but the girls chose pasta - surprise!
After dinner we stopped at a playground on Maud that we used to go to when Jacqui was at British School. It has not been kept up. I think it may not be long for this world because they are really letting it moulder! It was fun none the less and since we were already on Sheffield, we decided to walk home. As luck would have it, we passed a section of Sheffield that was closed for a street festival. The girls did not enjoy the cover of KISS's I Wanna Rock and Roll All Night that was blasting from the band stand. Oh well, there's no accounting for taste! I loved it!
