How had I never been to Chicago before? There was definitely more to do than my three days there allowed for, but I got a great sense of the city and life in the burbs too. Here are some shots of the beautiful United terminal at O’hare, our hotel and a sunset view from our room, and some architecture… Selecting which pictures to showcase here was difficult. In next week’s Photo Friday post, I’ll highlight two fun shops because I had to take pictures for you.
The docent of our architectural boat tour described Chicago as a “Paris on the Prairie” and a gateway to the West. Learning more about the city’s history and development was fascinating.
