Fun in Chicago!

We have been going like crazy after arriving in Chicago! We arrived last night and found our room okay, a little small with a queen bed, which David doesn't fit well on at all, but quaint and kinda antique feeling. We are staying at the Milennium Knickerbocker Hotel. Ain't that something, bring SA with us! We were exhausted but went out and walked up and down "Michigan Ave", stopped at The Cheesecake factory and shared a burger and cheesecake, roamed the streets and went down to the Nave Pier and watched the fireworkds then made our way to the greatest little park right around the corner from our hotel, ya know one of those "necking parks" Ha! We took pics of other couples for them!

After a night of this rattling noise in the air conditioner that was so annoying it made it's way into my dreams in different forms, like about 5 different dreams it was something in my dream, it was CRAZY!, we moved to a new room. It is bigger, has king bed, and hopefully the ac won't rattle!

This afternoon we went to a broadway show called "The Spelling Bee" at the Drury Theatre, is was really good and we had a blast. I wanted to see "Wicked" so bad, it's a show about "before dorothy" about the good witch and the bad witch. it was sold out and the con. here at the hotel found us 2 tickets...FOR $195 A PIECE! So we opted for another. =( I was so disappointed! Tonight we went to see "The Blue Man Group" at the Briar Street Theater. It was really DIFFERENT but we really liked it.

Tomorrow is a brand new adventure at the Navy Pier...

Check back Monday evening and I'll try to post some pics!
