A few years ago I made my first trip to Chicago and what a surprise that was. An amazing downtown and lake front and tons to see and do. The only problem with that trip was flying from Houston and being delayed all day due to thunderstorms over O'Hare....but we made it eventually.

The lake front is particularly amazing with restaurants and boats to look at. We took a trip on a boat and that skyline is even better seen from offshore. Like I said above - tons and tons to do for folks of all sizes and ages....
