Winter travels

We visited Alonda's sister in Chicago. Compared to Karachi, it was extremely cold!


The city had the requisite Nativity Scene and Christmas Tree in Daley Plaza.


In spite of the cold, the Christmas Market was actually pretty crowded. We talked to some people who said that the previous week it had been completely deserted. Too cold even for Chicagoans!


We went down to Ft Worth area to visit Alonda's dad and sister. We didn't have time to go see Jim's brother. We did, however, get to see some real, actual, genuine, for-sure Texas Longhorns. This is the four o'clock "cattle drive" for the tourists.

We guess they like the singing ...

Happy New Year to you all!
