Chicago!!!! It's not NYC, but it was still great!

I had a great time in Chicago! Sadly, I ended up being sick for part of my time there, so that slowed us down a little, but overall it was a lot of fun. Weirdly enough I actually like the 8am-9pm all day meetings & eatings! I was headed back to Chicago for work and went a little early with a co-worker so we'd have some time to see the city. The two days of our convention went from 8am-9pm with basically no breaks - just little 15 minute ones between sessions. There's always so much great info and so many of the people crack me up, it's makes for some very fun meetings, not to mention yummy food!

Sunrise out our hotel window. We were able to see the fireworks from Navy Pier on Friday too. Great view of Michigan Ave!

This was in Millenium Park. It was the coolest art piece. I loved it! I wish there hadn't been all the other people around, but they loved it too I guess!





Fun with the crazy mirrors at Navy Pier!



This is the John Hancock Observatory. Unfortunately it was so cloudy when we went we couldn't see anything out the windows. Kind of a waste of $15! Oh well.

Magnificent Mile here I come!!!!

These are many of the reasons I am so excited for my trip to Chicago! While I am excited to see many of the other sites I am most excited for Magnificent Mile! Store after store after store. What could be more fun for a shopaholic like me??? With stores like these I think I will be doing more window shopping then actual shopping, but that's still fun!
