Chi Town

The last week of June I was in Chicago with some colleagues for training.  We got to stay right off of Michigan Avenue by the lake.  This was my view:

Being a Midwest girl, I grew up spending a lot of time at lakes so I always enjoy it when I can be anywhere near water.  One night after class we spent a few hours on the River Walk and the next night we ate right on the river:

And of course I had to have some Chicago style pizza while we were there:

I didn't get to do any sight seeing but I've been to Chicago a few times before so I've been lucky enough to have some experiences in the city.  I failed to get any pictures of myself but that's probably for the best because it turns out I melt when I'm back in the Midwest these days.  I'm not used to high temperatures and high humidity anymore!  But I know it's the perfect kind of weather for hitting the lake or pool!  :)
