Being outside in the cold, bundled up in this festive environment with many other people who are having a good time as well, adds to the holiday feeling. If you ignore the Chicago buildings and landmarks, it almost feels like you are in a small German town. But why would you want to do that when you can enjoy the tall buildings and the Picasso and Miro? The Market is a great way to begin "feeling the spirit."
SANTA SIGHTING A:
I purchased a Bratwurst with sauerkraut topped with Dusseldorf Mustard and took it into the crowded warming house. I spotted a space at a table with a mom, dad, and a little girl and asked, "Is there room for Santa to join you?" The little girl's eyes were bright and she seemed almost too afraid to hope that this was real.
I asked her if she had been a good girl and she shook her head yes. I asked her if she had misbehaved a little and she shook her head yes. He dad told me, "At least she is honest." and I agreed. I told Juliet to let her parent know what she wanted for Christmas and I would try to do my best, although I couldn't promise that I would bring everything she asked for since there were no many good children on my list. She said she understood.
I really enjoyed the game and there is a 50/50 chance that Juliet believed.
SANTA SIGHTING B:
I was peeking into Santa's house which is only open on weekends and taking a few pictures. A little boy was upset at not getting to see Santa and then saw me. I shrugged my shoulders and said, "Day off!"
