Chicago

On day 5 of our move, we made it to Chicago. The drive there was fairly boring, Michigan is definitely not one of my favourite States!

Chicago is absolutely amazing. We want to go back. Now. Two days there was definitely not enough!


We walked Michigan Avenue, visited the Sky Deck at Willis Tower (formerly the Sears tower), walked along the waterfront on lake Michigan. Such a great experience. Chicago is beautiful, the people were friendly, and even though we were there over the 4th of July and it was really busy, it still felt safe.

Our hotel had a roof-top pool, which we all made good use of. Chicago was experiencing a heat wave, and it was definitely HOT! So nice to have a pool at our disposal while in the middle of a concrete jungle!

It was hard to leave, but we still had a whole adventure ahead of us as we continued our drive West.

We left early in the morning, but not before driving past the Chicago Bean and Harpo Studios!
