GO UTES!!!!!

I am going to try to upload a slideshow of the pictures that I took on our trip to Michigan. (there are almost 200 pictures, sorry!) Here is a recap of what we, my brother David and I did.
On Friday we flew to Chicago. When we got there we went and found some Pizza. From what we were told it is Chicago style pizza. I don't care if it was or not. I think that is the best pizza I have EVER had. mmmmmm. That was at Gino's East. There is a picture of the restaurant, just in case you were wondering what it was.
Saturday we got up early and drove through Chicago via the freeway, wait, I am going to call them freeway's out of habit but they are mostly toll roads. That was fun, NOT. I managed to snap a couple pictures of downtown Chicago as we drove past. There are better pictures later because we were later able to go downtown. On the way we passed some cars that were on their way to the game also. They had Michigan flags and what-not on their cars. So we put a jersey on the back of the seat so they knew that we were Utah fans.
Once we go to Ann Arbor we went to the mall dressed in our Utah garb for the game. It was fun watching all the people in their Michigan stuff whisper behind our backs. "They are from Utah!" (Really?) Then we walked the2 miles from our hotel to the game. We had some people honking at as and other things. We just waved back :)
As you know we won the game. I got a lot of pictures of the stadium and all the people there. It was amazing to have 108,000 people so quiet when I can't get 30 students to be quiet. I am definitely going to have to study this further.
Sunday morning we again got up early so we could drive down to South Bend via Ohio. I think we both wanted to add another state to our lists. So I got a lot of pictures at Notre Dame. I even got one of them painting the helmets, sorry they don't do it by hand.
I even managed to get a picture of the McDonald's in the middle of the free way!! And the train that runs down the middle of the freeway. Very odd for me. We drove around downtown Chicago for about an hour. We weren't planning on having time to do this so we were just driving and seeing what we could see. Probably missed a lot. Chris if you ever read this there is a picture of a building that I need identified. I have no idea what it is, but it sure looks cool.
Before we went to the airport we stopped for lunch. Where we were was just outside of the airport. The planes kept coming in. I can't believe how low they come in over some buildings. So I had to take a couple pictures of that. I am crazy, I know.
Oh and in case you haven't hear yet, we beat Michigan, 25-23! They managed to keep their lead, YEAH!!!!!



Here is an email that David sent me. We are such good sports:
How was everybody's trip back to Utah (or various locals)? I enjoyed the game here in Ann Arbor (I grew up in Utah but now live here in Michigan) from the 2nd row up on the south 5 yard line (It does pay to have connections).

Couple of compliments for all you fans that went to the game from the people here:

First I have heard several comments from coworkers and others around her(e), about how impressed they were that Utah had so many fans make the trip to Ann Arbor. While its been over 10 years since I last was in the "Big House", according to several here, we had as many, if not more fans, than even some of the Big-10 rivals bring in.

And second, I have heard several compliments from the people here how friendly and pleasant most all the Utah fans were.

Anyway It has been fun and thanks to all you who made the trip.
