CHI Town...

Here we are arriving in Chicago! It was a glorious night on the river.Our means of transportation upon arrival (thanks Santa Terrella).
Although deep dish was goood, nothing beats Troy's Pizza! This was Geno's East and it was just down the street. Evelyn, Kristie and I enjoyed a beer or two while waiting for our "pies" and pretending we were not tourist.I can't believe they were expecting us. This was the neatest stadium. It was so small that it felt like you were at a college game or something very intimate. It helped that we had awesome seats so close to the field. And they still have the old school score board where someone sits to put up the score.We took a cool architecture river tour. I was able to catch up on a few ZZZ's. That's the beautiful Chicago skyline behind us.The Sears Tour now named the The Willis Tower. How do you rename something so historic? It was very weird being 110 floors up and stepping out onto the glass ledges. Yummy! Lunch at Rick Bayless' Grill, The Frontera.
Navy Pier
Our last night we went on a progressive dinner tour. It took us to a restaurant that served Appetizers, off to another restaurant for dinner and to Michael Jordan's restaurant for dessert.
Of course, another good time had in "the windy city".
