We took a 4 day adventure up to the great Windy City to visit some friends of ours. Neither David nor I had been there and we both fell in love! If it weren't for the extreme winters we would be there in a heartbeat looking for houses. It has so much to offer for a growing family and such beautiful scenery. We loved riding the El...hopping from train to train not knowing where we were going! lol The Hancock Obs was an exhilarating experience. I am the type who doesn't care for heights, but this was worth the trip up the never ending elevator. The view was amazing...absolutely amazing. You could see 4 states from the top. Worth the fear for me! We also went to the Shedd Aquarium, Navy Pier, Lalapoolza, a boat ride on Lake Michigan, and toured all through downtown (Magnificent Mile, etc). My friend, who was diagnosed with Multiple Sclerosis last year, was such a trooper. Even with her not feeling her best and going through treatment, she still was the best host anyone could ask for. I really appreciate her hospitality in showing off her city for us Houstonians. I wish I could be there for her more during this hard time in her life, but we will be back to visit her in no time. We love the city and her family way too much to stay away!
