Basilica of Holy Hill

Despite it being an extremely windy day the views from here were beautiful

           

Chicago, Illinois

 

We made two visits to Chicago.  On the first one David and I took the Amtrak train from Sturtevant to Union Station

 

           

 

                                                                                              Daley Plaza - "That's where they got the Picasso!"   "Yep"

           

Cook County Building

The House of Blues   

           

Michigan Avenue - Magnificent Mile

           

           

The water tower                                                                        At the Apple Macintosh store

           

We had a very pleasant ride!                                                            Lake Shore Drive

Boerner Botanical Gardens - Hales Corners

           

                                                                                                                        This is what can happen after too much chocolate pie!

           

           

           

Lake Geneva

           

           

Chicago - Wrigley Field and The Field Museum

           

1060 W Addison.  Unfortunately the sign had gone

                    

The museum houses many treasures and is well worth a visit!

Sears Tower

These photo's don't do the view justice - truly amazing!  A Chicago must see!

           

           

           

Illinois Nazi's rally bridge - Jackson Park

It's still there, just!

I think I'd eaten too much chocolate pie!                                         Parting shot at O'Hare airport
