Chicago - Home of deep dish pizza and other wonderful things :)

As is typical of many trips involving flying we were delayed, and there really is only one thing you can do when you are sitting parked in the middle of the tarmac...EAT!


Our parking spot - complete with exceptional view:)



All good trips must start out on a full stomach and Chicago is no place to make an exception. We start our trip with a meager breakfast at Ronny's Steakhouse which happens to be right next to the El (do I sound like a local or what?).



to keep our energy levels up of course we had to have cheesecake...


and deep dish pizza!


Now Chicago isn't just about food.
They have luxury hotels...


They have beaches...

Big buildings...

Big buildings with great views of beaches...

Funky Buildings...




Pretty Parks...


and Giant Silver Jelly Beans.


Of course every city has it's quirks and chicago is no exception. They are very clean and they completely expect the tourists to help out. This might take me a while...
