NATO Summit...and Kobe!

Chicago hosted the NATO Summit this past weekend (Sun-Mon) and as Kobe and I went on a walk down Michigan Ave, we ran right into hundreds of people in Grant Park rallying and getting ready to go on a march towards McCormick Place.

I thought there would be more people coming down from everything I heard on the news, and my office building even closed for the day on Monday, but I really didn't see too many people.

There were cops EVERYWHERE we went, which was a good thing because it's better to have too much security, than not enough.

I took a picture of the protesters in Grant Park and a picture of Kobe (who was ready to fall over from the heat!) It was an interesting weekend seeing and hearing what everyone was protesting about. Something different, that's for sure!
