What a VIEW!

Yup..from our downtown CHICAGO hotel. Aren't those circular buildings cool. They are pie shaped condos. Here for the weekend, so we got all bundled up to see this city. First we bought our 3-day bus pass, then went on the architectular boat tour.
We saw "The Bean" Bought a city pass to visit the Field Museum & Planetarium , then made a stop at the Hershey's store. MmmMmmm. This Deep dish stuffed Giordano's pizza was AMAZING! so good that we ate this for dinner both nights, so yum. Million Dollar Quartet. WOW, it was SO fun. A night w/Elvis, Johnny Cash, Jerry Lee Lewis and Carl Perkins. We definately recommend seeing this Rockin' good show.On top of John Hancock tower. We had a great time in Chicago, and would visit again...in warmer weather. It is a clean, friendly city. (We came for 1 day of business and made 2 more days of fun!)

That looks like a blast. Sorry you had to miss Carrie Underwood, but it looks like the pizza made it worth it.
