    Going to Chicago for a few days =]
    I'll be leaving on Thursday (Nov 1st) and coming back on the 5th! What are some cool things to do with my family? What about FOOD? I love me some food, and I'm sure there's gotta be something tasty there :D.

    FYI, My mom set this whole trip up so we can see my brother graduate from boot camp, and see him before he ships out or moves somewhere else :).

    Shedd Aquarium! If you go, buy your tickets online and get there right before they open! That's what we did and we definitely saw half the stuff before it got too crowded. It's huge and beautiful! Alsoooo we ate at this AWESOME pizza place. SERIOUSLY BEST PIZZA EVER!!!! But I can't remember the name so I'm gonna have to get back to you in a min lol

    Definitely don't miss the Shedd! If the weather ends up being nice then Millenium park can be fun to walk around, or Navy Pier if your family likes looking at knick knack/tourist trap shops, and there are a lot of little food shops there. You can find pretty much any kind of food you like, Giordano's is okay but usually it's the little non-chain places that are the best (or the worst, haha, its a bit of a gamble). The art institute is really neat to visit too. Pick an interest or activity and you can find it in Chicago, its pretty great (And take the L! haha, I grew up in the suburbs so for some reason I think the L is really fun to ride - most people think I'm crazy).
