About chitownsmiley: A bit about me...I have a passion for travel as most do who belong to this site. I love to visit unique places that involve either a warm destination (Chicago Winters are brutal) like the beach, or a place with a lot of activities and culture to keep me busy. A few highlights of my ltrips have been an African Safari, abseiling Table Mountain, sailing the Seychelles and going on a microflight ride over Victoria Falls. I have had fun riding an elephant in Bali, jumping from the Sky Tower in Auckland, climbing the Sydney Harbour bridge, and riding a camel in Egypt. And, summers are great in Chicago to enjoy everything the city offers!
