Still number 1 on gooogle!

Search for "Chicago Snaps" on google images brings up my blogsite even now with the the top two images being from my post on June 27, 2010. Interestingly, it does not show the original Chicago photos posted on April 12, 2012.

Top link on Google - a pleasant surprise!

To be displayed among top three links on a Google search - isn't that something! If you search "Chicago snaps" on Google images, the top three images displayed are from my blogsite!

A few days back I noticed that my blog is getting increasing number of hits from Chicago. That piqued me. I wondered whether it was due to new friends I made on my visit to Chicago in April. But I wasn't convinced. Then I speculated whether Google is directing people from Chicago to my site. That sounded intriguing. I scrolled down my blog to see what could be causing it. When saw my blog entry on April 12th, titled Some Chicago Snaps, it clicked. Immediately, I opened another tab and searched for "Chicago snaps" on Google. Bang! Right there, I could see that the top 3 images were from my blogsite!

Some Chicago snaps

Here are some snaps of Chicago. The first one is view of Lake Shore Dr taken from Hancock Tower. The second snap is also taken from Hancock Tower. The third photo is of Cloud Gate in Millenium Park.

Chicago!!

We reached Chicago this evening. In the evening we visited John Hancock Observatory. It's a 94th floor observatory with an amazing view of downtown Chicago and Lake Michigan! I will post some photos I took with our new Panasonic FZ-35.

Chicago seems to be an amazing place! So lively! So full of energy! In contrast to sleepy (not sleepless) Seattle! I just love these big and fast cities. After all I am a Mumbaikar to my core!
