The Windy City of Chicago

 Just a real quick snippet of my Chicago weekend!
I had an amazing time - escaped Irene and made the most of my long weekend
The 12 hour drive wasn't too bad
Witnessed the filming of a car commercial randomly
Saw a boat sink and about 20 police and fire trucks come with scuba gear etc.
Apparently police sirens are a common sound in Chicago
The Chicago skyline is to die for
Chicago really is a city of layers upon layers
I could walk around Chicago all day and never get bored
Chipotle in Chicago tastes different..
Definitely bring a bicycle if you plan to visit - or rent one
The people are really nice
The atmosphere is great


We stayed at the Hyatt Regency in Chicago
This was the bar located in the atrium

The hotel atrium - one of the prettiest hotels i've ever stayed in


Our room



Our hotel was located in downtown Chicago - we were able to walk EVERYWHERE it was amazing!
Chicago has the prettiest flowers all over the city.



Millennium Park - standing at the infamous "Bean"



Still walking around downtown - most of Chicago's random corners look like this!


 Relaxing at a Memorial - this city has some of the coolest fountains.


View from our Hotel - I absolutely loved the river flowing through the city - best part of Chicago


Walking through the park with some of Chicago's skyline in the back

An idea of how beautiful the city looks at night - everything is lit up

On the riverwalk

My future apartment - I was so fascinated with the Chicago's architecture but this won me over
The bottom half is the garage and the top half are the apartments

More scenes of random walks downtown


The river just flows straight through the city


Sears Tower aka Willis Tower - Notice the floor underneath us is glass
One of the tallest buildings in the world

Still in the tower - on a clear day you can see 5 states!


Huswife will appreciate this! I found Hi-chew at Walgreens!! Totally made my day.
