Yes folks, please post these to the list. Or send them to Jean so she  
can collate them and then send to the list. I'd like to hear what  
folks have to say, even if my only experience with Chicago is to know  
that you don't want to fly back through there in the winter if you  
want to get home when you originally planned to. :-)

Nope. Sorry. While of interest to me, most of these are too far from  
the purpose of the Florilegium which concentrates on the Middle Ages  
and it's re-creation through the SCA and similar groups. I do keep  
some reviews of places to eat and things to do in European cities,  
but even that is generally limited to medieval oriented stuff.

PS: Along similar lines, does anyone have any recommendations for  
folks, SCA or not, who run medieval oriented European tours,  
especially the United Kingdom? Right now a relative of my wife is  
pushing her to come with her to China when she gets her second  
adopted child. However, I think my wife will have enough problems  
with a foreign country even if the signs are in script she can read  
but not understand (Germany) or even if she can (somewhat) understand  
the language (England, Wales, Scotland, Ireland). Also, at $2000 plus  
for just her, I think Europe would be a better choice.

Among other things, is the food. She doesn't like American-Chinese  
food, much less Chinese-Chinese food. "But the hotel will have  
European food". Then why are you going there if you aren't going to  
eat the food there? sigh.
