When we arrived, we dropped our bags in the room and came out for a drink and mussels with brown bread before going for a walk around the neighborhood.
On the walk, we saw this amazing art deco apartment building on a bluff overlooking the lake. I could totally live there.
Dan the man. How strong is he?
It was too late to visit the art museum on Saturday, but we walked along the fountain out front and played with the fun garden playground outside the children's/science museum.
Dan plays a xylophone bench.
Milwaukee was gorgeous. Kind of a strange place. I've never seen a cooler, cleaner, more beautiful town. . . that felt completely and utterly empty. We passed maybe 10-15 people on the street total on our 2 mile circuit. If the apocalypse was tidy and got rid of only people, the remains of the world would look like Milwaukee.
Who wouldn't want to live in this courtyard building?
Clematis already 15 to 20 feet tall in early June? How'd they get that done?
First night's dinner at Root was super-duper. Ate outside, on a bluff, overlooking downtown Milwaukee while drinking tasty wine and eating amazing food.
I made Dan get the fig and tongue empanadas. . . he said they were great. . .
they looked great. . .
and then back to the County Clare for dessert and a little Irish folk music in the pub.
