Chicago, IL

First visit to Chicago for both of us and we liked it a lot!

The architectural mix is intriguing and impressive – even a bit surreal every now and then. Made me think of some of the drawings of ‘Schuiten en Peeters’.

The transport system that runs above the roads in Downtown gave us the feeling we were in ‘ER’.

We walked around Downtown, in Grant Park to the shores of Lake Michigan, Millenium Park, did a self-guided architectural tour of ‘The Loop’ (part of Downtown), took the ‘El’ (metro) to some of the suburbs to get a flavour of something other than Downtown, walked around ‘Graceland Cemetery’ and prepared for our upcoming trips.

So yes, we could live here…. at least in summer… will have to come back and check the place out in winter! Maybe for some x-mas shopping!
Goodnight from Chicago.
