Chicago, Illinois

20/06/16
We arrived in Chicago and it was a quick turn around for dinner. We had a pizza party in Grand Park, located right next to our hotel. We had about 10 of the deep pan Chicago pizzas, which were unreal but so filling, only managed to have one slice! We then departed to go and watch the Chicago Cubs baseball game, which was played against St. Louis Cardinals who won 3-2 against the Cubs. Despite the end score it was an amazing experience at my first ever baseball game.. even if I didn't really know what was going on!

Our second and final day in Chicago. We move on pretty quick from place to place! Today we decided to do some sight seeing. Firstly we went and visited the Bean, also known as the dome. This was designed so you are able to see the Chicago skyline as it's coated with a mirror. We then went into the main shopping area, had lunch at the Cheesecake factory and may have or may not have visited a tattoo parlour (sorry parents, i know you are reading this :)). We went out for a last night out with our pals whose tour ended in Chicago. It was a super fun night but so sad to leave these people who will be friends for life.

Back on the road. On route to Wisconsin we stopped off at Milwaukee for lunch. Although we didn't get to walk around Milwaukee for long or see much, I saw this sign on a wall and it made me smile. I also saw a vets and there was a little cat sleeping in the window which made me happy hahaha I miss my cats. Anyway, the group then visited a local brewery called Millers. It was pretty interesting to walk around and see how they make their beer, even if most of the group were hungover. We arrived in Madison, Wisconsin after a long day of travelling and got an early night before heading off for another travel day into the next state, South Dakota.
