I've been traveling a lot around the midwest over the past month. I started out in Minneapolis, then I went up to a friend's wedding in northern Minnesota. I went rock climbing soon after that in southern Wisconsin, then to visit a friend in Iowa. From there I went up to the shores of Lake Superior to watch my friend perform in a songwriting contest. He won and got to open for Suzanne Vega.
My dad and I then went to visit my sister in Door County, where she works. Wisconsin is shaped like a mitten and Door County is the thumb that sticks out into Lake Michigan. It is a very popular vacation spot.
I then had to take a bus to Chicago to get my visas for China and India. Soon after I got back from Chicago I was in Madison. My mother had an Americorps training session, so I tagged along and spent two days hanging out on State Street, which is the famous street in Madison. I ate at some really delicious Thai, Mexican, and Laotian restaurants. I discovered this Cambodian/Californian band in a record store in Madison and I've been listening to them a lot:

Finally, just yesterday my dad and I made a trip to Green Bay. He was meeting up with an old college friend to go to the Packers/Bears Game. They happened to have an extra ticket, so I got in as well. It was really exciting.
