Hungry?

One of the things I have liked about our time in Chicago is hearing all the different languages. We've heard Spanish, Russian, Italian and all kinds of Asian dialects. 

Today Ansley and I spent most of our day visiting Wheaton College.  We'll share more about that visit on another day.  

After our tour and spending time with an admissions counselor we ate a late lunch.  We spent the afternoon just hanging out on the campus.  By the time we got back to our hotel tonight we were too tired to go out and sit down for dinner at a restaurant. We were still a little hungry so we decided to go to a nearby grocery store to get a snack.  

We went to a Super H store. We had no idea what kind of grocery store it was.  About 10 seconds after we entered the store we found out it was a Chinese store.  Every package was written in Chinese.  They even had a Chinese news channel on big screen tvs.   

Instead of leaving we decided to try to find something to eat.  

We found the snack row and ended up being stumped between two snack choices.  They were the only snacks we found that were translated.  

We couldn't decide between Jolly Pong or Leaf Pie.  

After about 5-10 minutes of discussion we gave up and went to a K mart.  

We love Chicago.  

Tomorrow we head back to Memphis.  We would appreciate prayers for our safety.
