Very brief visit to Chicago, really to see a friends new home . We only went to the Shedd Aquarium, and we spent the whole day there!!!! What a great place, entry line was long but we heard someone ask about the behind the scene's tour which cost $10 more on the admission and well worth it. So for $45 we got admission to the Aquarium, a show to see the trainers and Buluga Whales, and Dolphins, entrance the Jellies exhibit and the behind the scene tour. And we didn't see it all, look forward to our next visit
If you want to go downtown for diner, find a place that takes reservations, we didn't and wanted to go to the original Pizzeria Uno, big mistake, 75 minute wait, so we went around the corner to the Weber Grill, waited there as well but the menu was larger and the brisket to die for, also lots of local beers
We are planning a return to visit our friend in the Spring and there appear to be many places to see
