diversity

One of the most striking differences between Chicago and any other city in Canada is the number of African-Americans and Mexican-Americans here. The city is ~40% African-American actually! There are Mexican restaurants everywhere. I ate one of the best vegie burritos I've evr had a few days ago. On the Southside, Soul Food restaurants dot the cityscape.
It adds a whole other level of diversity that we don't see in Canada. It's another thing that makes this feel like another country.

Camille's aliens should visit ....
