Chicago and Norway


Imagine - four million people live in Chicago! Four million in one city.

We did a two hour bustrip om a double decker to get some impression of downtown Chicago.
It was worth it!

Downtown has a lot of skyscrapers where many work.
Around the centre you have endless areas with one or two stories dwellings - where many live.

Norway has around 4.6 millions - spread along a long and "strangely dimensioned country".

One city more or less with the same number of residents as a whole country!

And Lake Michigan - the size of it!
After the wedding ceremony we ate lunch at the Signature Room at the 95th floor of the Hancock building. That's where I could look down at the beach, watch the ships out there and had to remind myself this is drinking water in a lake and not salt water in an ocean.
