Jordan's Playground

Chicago


I know we are now a long way behind on this blog but figured seeing how winter is starting to set in over here it would give us a chance to get some thoughts down.

Chicago’s population is just under 3 million, making it America’s 3rd largest city. If we had to equate Chicago to an Australian city its closest match would easily be Perth. Beautiful skyline, built around an amazing river.

OK so to make up a little ground on this blog lets dot point our key Chicago moments;

· Visited family – had a BBQ with David, Jamie and kids
· Ate deep dish pizza, nearly died – you have been warned
· Went on a guided river cruise of the city checking out the buildings architectural significance
· Magnificent Mile – Hide the credit cards before you venture down this shopping precinct
· Observation deck on the John Hancock building
· Fell in love with Mrs Gothic
· Dicks Last Resort – Cheers Jamie for the heads up!

Chicago is a must see city, wish our time there was a little longer.

With America now done and dusted, next stop: London, England.
