Chicago
My Kind of Town, Chicago is…..
What is Chicago all about?
I have mixed feelings about the place. It is absolutely beautiful, stunning and I love it! It is a American metropolitan juggernaut of a city with fantastic dining, amazing architecture with a rich culture. It pulses with energy and makes you feel alive no matter what time of day or night. It has so much to offer the country and the rest of the world but it also seems to be dealing with an identity crisis.
Like many other urban paradises, is under the control of crazies and has gotten away from what makes it so enchanting. Can it be saved and restored to its former glory? I guess time will tell.
Flying into O’hare you fly north over the lake and circle back in so the planes flying out and shoot directly to where they need to go. You get great views of the city when you arrive.
