Chicago: The Windy City

We went to Chicago in February, so I thought I'd tell you about our trip before we have anything Yellowstone to share.

We took the mega bus down to Chicago, we sat on the top level front row so it felt like we were driving. Wisconsin is not the most exciting place to drive through on a groggy winters day. it was a long way all the way across the state. When we finally started getting close to the city, it was rush hour, we had plenty of time to look at the lights of Chicago from the freeway. Our friend Laura picked us up and brought us to her place, she had a great view of the city out of her window! the city is so big!

We had some dinner at a "build your own burger" place, we had pineapple "adult" milkshakes that were awesome, and the burgers were delicious. The next day we explored Laura and Vishi's neighborhood while they were at work, and class. I got a haircut, chopped it all off. A lot of the houses look like Bill Cosby style houses... so we had our eye out for Cosby sweaters.

Laura took us downtown in the afternoon, we had some Chicago deep dish pizza and saw all the sights. Here are some pictures:
