We have never been to Chicago before and found it to be a wonderful city. The first thing we did was ride our bikes along the Lakeshore Trail. Along the waterfront is 26 miles of public beaches and parks. Just beautiful! This was thought of in the 30’s by an architect so this area was filled in. What foresight! The weather was hot and the beaches were packed. We stopped at the Navy Pier which is full of restaurants, some amusement rides, tour boat rides, a grand ball room, shopping mall and a Stain Glass Museum, etc.
This is the John Hancock Building, second tallest in the City. We went to the Signature Lounge on the 96th(our ears popped on the way up) floor for a drink and snack. Just look at that view. Breathtaking!
We would definitely visit Chicago again, hopefully to see more of their great Museums. We did see the History Museum which we enjoyed.
Look how busy the beach is on May 26th.
