I got to play a couple notes on the musical saw and play the retro neopets card game (the better one imo)

I didn't have a lot of time in Chicago to take cool photos since I had a quick layover but I found a ton of these in the O'Hare airport and found it interesting.

Judging from my quick scan of the airport, Chicago values baseball, parents (play place, pumping rooms, and Lego vending machines, safe bathrooms (storm shelter and gender neutral options), and is also a long walk to get from one terminal to another. Looks like they had some mobility assistants for those who needed help.

Some pictures from my flight from Chicago to San Francisco.

For national ice cream day, I tried stretch ice cream! It's a Middle Eastern desert also known as Booza. It was Rose and Cardamon, with rose petals and something else I can't remember as a topping. It was good! Here's the stretch:

The reason it stretches so much is because of the mastic tree resin in it. It tastes like 95% ice cream and 5% gum.

San Francisco! I like the ocean, wish I got to get more ocean air on the regular.

The room I am staying in has a couple of collector's items, including a yoyo collection.

Detroit has such a big airport they have a tram to move you around. It was fun to take. Not sure why the alternative language is Japanese (do a lot of tourists like Detroit?) but as a Japanese language learner, I appreciated it.

I also had a sandwich here from a vending machine. It was surprisingly good. The peppers in it make my body feel healthy and strong :D

A man came in and introduced himself and his friend as "two lonely souls." When asked what he wants to drink, he said "delicious tap water".

I aspire to have this man's confidence
