Chicago's a frustrating coffee town. There's some decent coffee there, but it's pretty sparsely distributed.
Edit: You can tell I'm an avowed Seattleite, as availability of coffee is my prime consideration when evaluating any travel destination.
Sometimes she can’t be helped. I will never forget that truck-stop near Bakersfield (CA) when she actually pulled herself a paper cup of the free coffee. I was wondering if I should say something, but then after 2 weeks in the state she really should have known better herself. The panic that blushed on her face once the brew hit her taste buts was priceless. She refused to swallow and spit it back in the cup before throwing it away.

Went to Santorini last week for 4 days. Had a great time. Took lots of photos. But they turned out to be more touristy that usual. I guess because I was with non-wgb company and felt like a tourist. Well, here you go.
