Day 1 Chicago 27th of March
Underneath you see my hotelview and a short impression of what my 1st
day in Chicago was about but you are missin’ the good stuff because my
homeboy Jacquez took me to a Bone Thugs concert.

Day 2 Chicago 28th of March
After a short nights sleep I have hit the streets again at around 12AM.
Took the pink line towards State Str. and dropped some typical Dutch
treats at my homeboys work and we made a lunch appointment.
Hit Michigan Ave. and had lunch later on. Also hit Millinium Park.

Day 3 Chicago 29th of March
First day of training on South Riverside Plaza on the 20th floor.
After the training we had a nice diner in Greek Town and after
that I have hit the streets to do some photography.
The days are long this way but it’s more than worth the while.

Day 4 Chicago 30th of March

Second day of training and things went real well.
Lots of material to get through but I survived.
After training brought my laptop to the hotel and
hit these Chicago streets one more.
Went to the Hancock Observertory on Michigan Av.
and took some nice nightshots. Also hit Chicago’s
Riverwalk by night.

Day 5 Chicago 31st of March

After a half day of training at 1SYNC we said goodbye to our trainers.
Went to the hotel to drop my laptop to headout again.
Once again hit the streets of Chicago to chill with them boys homey
Jacquez and brother Court. Yup us devils took Court out of the librairy to
do some photography. Check it out and on one of the shots you see a bumm
on the streets gettin’ his Porn on on a dvd player. You know I aint givin’ him
shit no more.

Day 6 Chicago 1st April

Almost my last day but still got some nice shots down.
Went to Navy Pier and went on a boat ride to see the city skyline.
Met a nice familie from Chicago that just spend a few days in a hotel to
celebrate Spring Break in their own town. This really is the land of
contradications on one block you will see a Ferrari and two blocks down
you will find somebody sleepin’ in the street. Also saw some firemen that
graduated, while I was over here a young fireman who was only on the job
for a few weeks lost his life because he went into a burnin’ bullding to save
an old man.

Day 7 Chicago 2nd of April

Tomorrow will be my last day in Chicago.
Today I did some photography with Courtney to leave him
with some nice pics from his Amsterdam homey.
We also wen’t to Hide Park and hit Columbia University on
Michigan Avenue.
