Chicago

After Yellowstone Park, we ventured to Jackson (or Jackson Hole) where we had 2 nights. It was such a lovely town, we did lots of walking but also enjoyed some down time to relax. The place we were staying at had a lovely creek running through it and was just beautiful.

                       

                       

After Jackson, we headed for Salt Lake City where we only had one night before we flew to Chicago. This is the lovely Capitol Building in Salt Lake City.

                       

We have only had 3 nights or 2 full days (not enough time) in Chicago and have explored it on foot and by boat. We took a boat tour of the Chicago River that introduced us to the different architectural designs in this lovely city. We had also booked a Chicago Greeter and spent over 4 hours with Sharon, a most wonderful Greeter who really knows this city. She took us into certain buildings that we would never have known about.

                       

                       

                       

                       

                       
    
                        
                                          

                         

                         

A very warm day here and as we walked for about 7 hours around the city today, I think an early night is in order as tomorrow we fly to Boston.

  2. DJan, make sure you book a Chicago Greet, they are totally free, as are any of the Global Greeter networks greets. A great way to see a city with a local.
