    wow!! I think Chicago is my kind of town :) Did most everything on the list except the science museum and the sears tower. Didn't get to see any LFS either. We did eat a ton of great food and had deep dish pizza two of four nights lol

    My home town as well I miss it. The food is great there. Sears tower changed it's name though. I forget what it's called now. To me it's still the Sears tower.

    oh my, haven't been back in years??!! I have some pics on my cell phone but they are mainly of the skyline off of navy pier. It certainly is an awesome city. So vibrant with lots of foot traffic, beautiful flowers, tons of little eateries, ridiculous number of shops, and such a nice breeze over the Superior. I really, really liked it!

    I didn't make it to the art museum but my son went. He was very impressed!

    Thx Cam - I hope you have a great time at MACNA you lucky duck!! :)
