On Wednesday we lectured, and were wined and dined, at the University of Chicago. We had a great day, but the fact that it was the last teaching/lecture day of our trip was a sad reminder that our incredible adventure will be coming to an end in just over two weeks. We were hosted for our lectures and for lunch by Rich Baron, Chair of Radiology, David Paushter, Vice Chair of Radiology, and Aytekin Oto, Chief of Abdominal Imaging.
On Thursday morning, we headed south along Chicago's lakeshore bike path. After riding through the South Side of Chicago, we passed through the rough and tumble towns along the shores of Lake Michigan, first in Illinois and then into Indiana. After leaving Gary, IN we headed southeast, away from the lake, to our pleasant destination town of Valparaiso, IN.
