Chicago Adventure

Spent the weekend in Chicago!  An amazing city with so much to see and do.  Highly recommend the GO Pass...attractions can be expensive and add up quickly.  With the pass we saved both money and time...no waiting in lines!  

Parking costs are high so park early for the best rate--$15 for the day, then take the public transport to your destinations. Wear comfortable walking shoes because you will need them!

The sky deck is a must see!  

Sailing on the Tall Ship Windy with pirate Dave.  There are many options for a boat tour but we went with  this old fashioned sailing ship and were treated to colorful pirate tales.  I love that the crew included children in the raising of the sails and firing of the canon!

Field Museum...wish we'd had more time there!

Planetarium!  We spent the day visiting as many  places as we could fit in! 

We were in Chicago to put a family member on an international flight and managed to fit in a day touring.  I would definitely go back just to spend more leisurely time seeing everything.   I often see great airfares to Chicago and now I will pay a little more attention when I see those and look for an opportunity to go back!
