Chicago

[picklemonkey]

I just booked a week in Chicago with a friend from Monday the 16th and flying back on the night of Saturday the 21st. I see Claude VonStroke is playing the night of the 20th (I'm there ). Also plan on checking out the Field Museum on Saturday day.

What's cool to do in Chicago during the week? I work from home, so I'm basically just packing up and will work from my hotel room during the day, leaving me to explore the city at night. Looking for anything touristy or non-touristy to do. May take a day off if I find enough that I want to get done.

Re: Chicago

Go catch a game at Wrigley if you can. Always an awesome atmosphere there. Slam all of the bars along the street there too. Tons of them. Check out the Museum of Science and Industry, check out the restaurants downtown, head to Navy Pier, hit some clubs at night, go to Rush & Division and tell them you're from California and see what happens. hahahaa.

I almost forgot... head to Gary, Indiana.

Re: Chicago

Field Museum (the one with the dinosaurs) is pretty cool, too, not sure if that's the same one beanz is referring to or not. Chicago is a great city and has such a great vibe, though, you can have fun there without doing anything in particular...

Start the night with a martini at the martini bar on the 96th floor of the Hancok building.
