| Chicago is a beautiful city! Look at that gorgeous skyline, from Lake Shore Drive! Lake Michigan, our "ocean", is just to the left of the road (past the beach). |
 |
| We chose to visit the historic Green Mill Lounge, in the Uptown area. It is still used as one of the premier jazz performance venues in the city - and it popular with many of the mob figures back in the 1930s. |
 |
| Even though they will use this night club, it still looks much the same as it did 80 years ago. |
 |
| There are now modern townhouses in the Prairie Avenue neighborhood, but they are built in period style. It was a beautiful, sunny day - perfect to appreciate the autumn colors. |
 |
| Next, we were excited to visit the Prairie Avenue district, which is just south of The Loop (downtown Chicago). Above is the Wheeler Mansion, one of the oldest homes in all of Chicago. It is now a boutique hotel. |
 |
| You would certainly have sweet dreams in a room like this! The down comforter was so fluffy soft and thick, and every bedroom had a fireplace. So peaceful and lovely! |
