Yay for Friday! I'm heading on a road trip this weekend to Indiana and Chicago. I've never been to Chicago, so I'm very excited! Got any recommendations? I can't wait to test out my new Diana Mini camera...eehhh! I'll also try to update Twitter if anything strikes my fancy. I hope you have a wonderful Labor Day weekend!

Here's a few Chicago tips! Skip the Observation Deck (and its long lines, screaming children and sky high admission price) at the Hancock Observatory and head one floor HIGHER to the Signature Lounge. Great views. Better ambiance. And you can buy yourself a drink and relax. Be sure to check out the view from the ladies' room. It's sort of spectacular. (Seriously.) Also, some of the best pastries on the planet are at Julius Meinl. It's not too far to walk from Wrigley Field. You can find it at Southport & Addison. Have fun! And travel safe.
ReplyDeleteCute pics :)
ReplyDeleteOoh, can't wait to see your mini results! I was quite excited to hear that this little camera came out!
ReplyDeletefun fun photos!
ReplyDeleteFun! You'll have a blast. Chicago is one of my favorite cities to visit. I second the Hancock observatory (as well as the signature room) but also, the Billy Goat Tavern on michigan - lower level. It's a cult classic!
ReplyDeleteoh boy, i love those biker chics! have fun!
ReplyDeleteI have visited Chicago several times and my friends lived nearby Milk and Honey Cafe. I always eat there! Its affordable and it has a deelightful brunch in a really great neighborhood with lots of great shops nearby. A handmade co-op and a few great boutiques. (Can't remember names..) Have fun!
