Milwaukee, WI

In order to expedite our passage thru immigration on returns from our travels out of the country we applied for a Global Entry pass. To get this pass we had to go thru an interview process with Homeland Security at one of many airports in the country. We chose to go thru Milwaukee since we could get the interview quickly and because we had never been to Milwaukee. 
We flew up on Tuesday afternoon so by the time we got to our hotel it was supper time. We got our room, turned on the A/C (as the room was hot) and then headed to Maden's German Restaurant. We had a nice meal at this famous and old icon of Milwaukee. 
We expected a cool room when we got back but that was not the case. We called the front desk and they sent up an engineer who could not fix the A/C.  So at 11pm we moved to a new -- and better-- room!  We have a corner suite with great views of downtown. I suspect we could see the lake if it weren't for the clouds and fog.
