If you ever get the chance to go to Milwaukee, skip that trip haha. There was absolutely nothing to do there outside of a boat tour and ball game.

 

Miller Park (Brewers stadium)

Now on to Chicago pictures, the best things we did while there had to be Wrigley Field and the Sears (Willis) Tower. The sky deck was cool as shit, nothing like standing over 1350ft above the ground on a piece of glass.

I have always really liked Chicago. Great city, so much to do. People there seem reasonable and friendly. I'm consistently mesmerized by Chicago's skyline.

 

Never been to Milwaukee. Not planning on going anytime soon.

The people in Chicago were amazingly friendly. The last time I was in Chicago was about 15 years ago, so I didn't remember how nice the people there were. We only had 1 encounter with anyone crazy or rude and that came from an old homeless lady on the train. She wasn't rude to us, but she sure was crazy, I sat next to her thinking "I am gonna have to drop an elbow on this old lady" as she sat there talking crazy digging through her book bag.

 

Milwaukee is a dying city (apparently it's actually sinking from what our guide told us), there was absolutely nothing to do there. We were lucky to find the boat ride which took up an hr of our time. The next best thing in the city it's self was the public market. The food in Milwaukee was solid, if anyone ever goes there, I suggest you stop at Moe's Pub or The Rock Bottom. Both of those places were good eats, with Moe's being the better of the 2.

Loved El Hefe and the best hole-in-the-wall bar in Chicago: The Lodge. Right across the street is Five Faces, which has a gyro cheeseburger that - if eaten between 12am and 2am -will pre-treat a hangover like no other. Felt right as rain on Friday morning for my presentation. :lol:

You were at Navy Pier and didn't eat at The Goat?

 

Love Chicago. If I were to live in a big city its my #1 pick.

I disagree, I went to Milwaukee for work last year and I saw the biggest cankles beyond imagination. Looked like massive water balloons on this ladies legs.

I wanted to get a picture, because it was beyond belief, but I would have felt horrible for her if I took that picture.

 

 

Awesome pics though. I've had great times in Chicago recently.
