Stephanie and I went to Chicago this past weekend for Pitchfork Music Festival.
Before it got too crowded
Trying to stay cool
Good pizza
Downtown
The Bean
Taking a photo of the bean
Stephanie perpendicular with herself
A fountain
Signature Room in the John Hancock
Sipping a cocktail, I had this view from the Signature
Same beach, 96 stories lower
I took a lot more pictures, but most of them are repetitive photos of large crowds at Pitchfork. Tiring, but fantastic weekend. Tips learned from a friend and resident (Thanks Phil!)
- Signature room in the John Hancock Center: best free view of Chicago?
- megabus (next time, perhaps)
- apparently Stephanie and I went to all the wrong bars

That room would scare the living crap out of me. Something about a couple millimeters of molten sand just doesn’t give me a feeling of security. What floor was it on?

96th floor.

IMHO, the best free view of Chicago….. Womens restroom, observation deck, John Hancock building.

Uhhh, did you have fun? If so; those weren’t the wrong bars. There is too much hype about certain bars in Chicago. Its about the environment; if the bar matchs what you seek; great.
