[QUOTE="Big Bad Kitty, post: 59736, member: 3647"] Come on to the Windy! Not only do we have 6 professional sports teams (2 baseball, a basketball, a football, a hockey, and a soccer), but we have a semi-pro hockey team, and the surrounding burbs have 3 semi-pro baseball teams. Sports not your thing? We have all the touristy things you can stand. Why not start with a trip to the top of the tallest building in the world. It would do you good to bring gum, as your ears do pop on the elevator ride up. Check out Mayor Daley's wet dream, Millenium Park, and the famous "bean": Not far from that is our city's fine aquarium: ...and planetarium: Might as well check out the museum while you are on the south side: Then you can go up Lake Shore Drive a bit to Navy Pier: And maybe take a dinner cruise on the Spirit of Chicago: Some of our suburbs have a bit to offer, too. We have the cultural gem in Oak Park, Frank Lloyd Wright's home & Studio: Up north in Glencoe is the critically acclaimed Botanical Gardens: Not far, in Highland Park, you can catch an outdoor concert at the Ravinia Festival" OK, you REALLY want to shop. You can drop the kids off in Gurnee at Six Flags: ...and down the road is the infamous outlet mall, Gurnee Mills: Feel froggie? Head over to Cicero and try your luck at Hawthorne race track: Then maybe relax with a liesurely stroll in Naperville at the Riverwalk: Meh, that should keep ya busy for a day or so. [/QUOTE]
