One of the few things I knew about Chicago before planning my trip was about the T-Rex Dino Sue, via The Dresden Files cc. @longshotauthor . Was sad to hear she was off display but went to the Field Museum anyway and managed to get a peek after all!

Tomorrow’s treat: lolly cake.
For many years, I only ever visited SF in June and I thought Market St. permanently had the pride flags up. Had the amazing opportunity today to march in the Pride Parade. 🏳️🌈 #SFPride#ApplePride
Probably overdue but finally did a lockdown of all my old posts on Facebook that were public. Interesting rabbit hole. I seemed to wise up in 2013 or so and change my default setting to private. Not that anyone would care enough trawl back that far. Probably.
#WWDC draws to a close and friends all drift off home. It holds a special place in my heart for many reasons and I hope it was and an inspiring and productive week for all involved.
I had the awesome experience of welcoming and meeting so many #wwdcscholars at the student scholarship orientation today - all so passionate, eager to learn and excited to be here. Congratulations and have a great week!
@chrisjrn@pjf @pelagikat Awesome! Keep me posted! Feel free to ping me in Hungarian too. :D Some of my suggested corrections have actually made it into Duolingo.
Next on my list of attempting to see more of the U.S., I’ll be visiting: Chicago in July!✈️ As always, recommendations for things to do / see / eat / experience are welcome.
