I think we need to explain a bit about the chicken. One of Lori's friends just retired and for his retirement party. The master party planner found a bunch of squeaking rubber chickens for the centerpiece decorations. Well, there were a couple of dozen of these things hanging around and someone got the bright idea for us to bring one with us on our trip.
So with some encouragement (no money changed hands), we brought the chicken and have been carting him/her around for photo ops. Its pretty funny when we whip out the chicken for a photo and other tourists wonder what in the world we are doing. We get odd looks, funny comments, and some down right appreciative responses.
Watch for more of the chicken photos. Also, we are asking for comments to this post with your suggestions for a name for the chicken. Lori has already said no to "McNugget the McTourist."
