Chicago, Chicago it's My Kind of Town Sorry Frank!

by aussiedoug - last update: Feb 20, 2004

Gives you some idea of the size of Sears Tower
Been to Chicago three times and the first two times were in January......, "Absolutely Freezing!"
All the same, it's undeniably a great city, a beautiful city, not only for its setting on Lake Michigan, but also for its great buildings both old and new!
First two trips Kerry & I were there together, but on my last trip I was there on my own after I'd driven back up from Loogootee, Indiana visiting Loogootee West Elementary thanks to Tammy Payton a great teacher there at the time.

Pros:"Great City with everything you could want"
Cons:"Absolutely freezing in winter"
In A Nutshell:"Have to visit again, but in another season"

 Terrific photos Doug & the aquarium sounds worthy of a visit too. Funny how we Aussies like aqauariums eh?

 The Shedd Aquarium was one thing we couldn't cram into the short trip to Chicago...next time I guess. Nice photos!
