decided to risk our lives 😆🙄...

headed to Chicago in two weeks for first time! 😊

combining with a short road trip to Wisconsin to visit niece, but will have 4 nights. staying near Millinneum Park downtown. 

will be perusing recent pages for food recs. thought we'd do a boat tour, basically see what TripAdvisor top 10 things to do are.

might try a show...any suggestions on theaters?

2.5 hours to Madison, hope it's a pretty drive this time of year...hotel in Madison near the capitol on the isthmus is as much as d/t Chicago! 😮

Boat tour is a must for a first timer, explains a lot about riverfront access and setbacks and why Chicago architecture is unique.

If you’re staying near Millennium Park, I can recommend Gage as a nice place to eat. Especially if the weather is nice and you can sit outside overlooking Michigan ave and the park.

Wildberry pancakes is just down the street near Michigan and Randolph and is an awesome breakfast place.

I have a quick trip to one of our offices in Naperville, but I should be able to get away for one night close to the city before I head out of Midway.

I would love to stay somewhere on the affordable side that is easy to get to the airport and close to a cool area downtown to eat and walk around and find a dispensary.

I'll probably be back again within a year or two, but this is my first time.  I will try and make a late boat tour, but that might need to wait until next trip.  

Any recs on a hotel or neighborhood that would give me a taste of the city and a quick trip to the airport the next morning?
