The last week of my winter break was spent in Chicago with my brothers, mom, and new SLU friend, Hannah. I flew up with my family January 7th, spent the weekend in the city, said good-bye on the 9th, spent the week with Hannah and
her family in Oak Park (about 10 minutes outside the city), and then took the train back to St. Louis on the 15th, two days before classes started.
The first weekend was go, go, go!! We hit Giordano's pizzeria, the Sears Tower, the Field Museum, the Magnificent Mile, Navy Pier and Harry Caray's, and Millenium park in a very short weekend. The weather was bitterly cold and we definitely put in a few miles of walking (while also utilizing the L) but we had a blast! We'd sight see and shop all day, then sit around the hotel room and tease each other and joke around all night. My favorite places were Giordano's and the Field Museum, along all the hours of family bonding time we spent together :) Here are just a few pictures from our weekend together...
