The Windy City

by dejavu2gb - last update: Jul 6, 2008

View of Chicago from John Hancock centre
I have had the absolute pleasure of visiting Chicago 3 times now and with every visit I love the city even more.
My first visit was to Chicago was also the first ever visit to the USA, and I immediately fell in the love with the City.

So in 2008 I had the pleasure to visit again...twice... lucky me!!
I stopped en-route there to Austin for a work trip, and the good memories of Chi-town came flooding back. However please note that if you do not l ike the cold... do not go in the winter!! It was -23C when I was there in February. I am a cold lover so it was funfor me... check out my pics of the cold...
So now I am looking forward to my 4th visit, but not sure when that will be...hopefully soon!!

Enjoy the page and thanks for reading.

Cons:"For those of you who dont like the cold, DO NOT visit in winter, it gets really cold."
In A Nutshell:"Fabulous!"

 I promised a friend I'd get out to Chicago soon. Only made 1 short trip...enjoyed the river. Would like the boat trip. NOT going up in that tower!! My heart couldn't take it. :-)
