Chicago in two days and one ordered list August 17
Jerry, Lacey, and I took a spontaneous road trip to Chicago last weekend. We stayed with her friends who have lived in Chicago for quite awhile. With their help, we did a ton.
- Visited an adult arcade. By adult, I mean they served beer. Awesome.
- Closed down a bar.
- Suffered through a meal at White Castle.
- Tried (and loved) Italian ice.
- Spent a few hours at the Field Museum.
- Drove around Chicago and saw the city from Lincoln Park.
- Visited the North Michigan Ave. Apple Store. Cross another store off the list!
- Had the best pizza of my life at Giordano's. Seriously.
- Watched the sun set over Chicago from the 96th floor of the John Hancock building (the Signature Lounge).
- Walked around the Navy Pier.
- After listening to live music at the Pier, we stayed for the fireworks show. It's amazing that they launch fireworks twice a week during the summer. And each display is cooler than the Midland 4th of July fireworks.
The drive back was pretty long, but my Garmin got us home safe and sound.
