"Not a bad start"

So you may have already heard, a little thing called the election happened yesterday and we were thrilled to be close to the action here in Chicago.
Here are some pics from last night.

The view from ThoughtWorks over Grant Park - you can see the lights of the rally site off at the far end of the park.


Millie amazed at being out past her bedtime and all the people walking down Michigan Avenue.


Then, finally, the moment we were all waiting for...


On the long walk home, up a mostly pedestrianised Michigan Avenue, Millie attracted a lot of attention from the street party crowd. One lady walking next to us, smiled as she said to Millie "Not a bad start".

What an incredible night.
