Well, our trip to Chicago was certainly eventful. Almost 9.5 hours in the car, the hotel losing air conditioning and water for 4 hours, every other hotel in Chicago being full because it is their “busy season”, and our smoking “non-smoking” room. It’s a good thing the awesome gymnastics made up for all of that.

Unforunately, I was only able to take photos of half of the first session of gymnastics (out of three total sessions) before I was told to put my camera away. There were definitely some insane camera restrictions going on. It really stunk to have to stop taking photos, but I finally watched a meet like a normal spectator and I must say, it was pretty fun.

Here are a few of my favorites from the session. A link to the complete gallery of the session is at the end of this post below the photos.
