Chicago Sept 2012

So this post is super late, but better late than never, right? Here are some pics from when we met my MIL, BIL, and friends for a weekend getaway to Chicago back in September. 

On the orange line headed to downtown


First stop after check-in













Shaun and Elise



Ferris wheel on Navy Pier










Magnificent Mile


Dinner at Lou Malnati's

Roaming the town after dinner


Buckingham Fountain

The next morning we took an architectural boat tour










Trump tower - my favorite


We went through a lock to get out onto the lake





Navy Pier and the skyline



Our hotel was the dark green building with the gold cap - Hard Rock Hotel

Can see our hotel in the distance with the gold top

Lunch on Saturday - Italian beef sandwhiches




Willis Tower

Who can find our hotel? ;)





Drinks after Willis Tower (a necessity after all those crowds & standing!)
Free opera at Millennium Park



Sunday morning breakfast


After breakfast, Nate and I took a bike tour


Nate volunteered to be in the back :)

Lincoln Park



Sinatra's favorite bar






The name of Nate's bike - think it would have been
more appropriate as my bike :)



I know there are A LOT of pictures here, but believe it or not, we did so much more that's not documented. What a busy weekend!!
