• Our hotel was on the Panama Canal, it was dark by the time we got there but the lights were beautiful. We had to be up at 5 am for our flight to Bocas Del Toro so we only had 5 hours of sleep 2 nights in a row. New years Eve in Chicago was very fun. We had hors'dorves and drinks at Italian Village thanks to a hot tip from Marilyn,it was excellent. Then went across the street to Jersey Boys. We saw the understudies in 4 roles and their timing was off,it looks like it could be a really good show but not that night. Then we hopped on the train and went to Lincoln Park and had dinner at Baba Re Ba! a Spanish Tapas place (pete and jim thought I said we were eating at a topless place) food was fun and good,but no asparagus fries like the Tapas place in Frederick that Melanie and Eric took us too. They brought out hat and noisemakers and champagne for midnite.By the time we got back to our hotel it was 2 am.
