We went to the top of the Sears Tower today....Wow, what an amazing view. The Sears Tower is the tallest building in Chicago with a whole whopping 110 stories. While up at the top, I closed my eyes and I could actually feel the building swaying a bit from the wind......I won't lie.......it was a bit unsettling.....but still cool.
We also took a trip on a red double-decker tour bus. Chicago has a ton of old buildings with some pretty interesting architecture. We saw Trump Tower, Soldier Field, The Magnificent Mile (an awesome mile of shopping, which I will be exploring in depth tomorrow.), Navy Pier, and Oprah Winfrey's residence. Did you know that she takes a helicopter to and from work every day?....crazy. We also saw the only two buildings that survived the Great Fire of 1871.
I am pretty impressed by our hotel. The beds are comfy and the food is delicious! Tomorrow I am going to try the Ricotta Pancakes..........sigh.
