Chicago, Illinois, Midwest

How to Enjoy Chicago for FREE.99

Chicago is America's second city for very good reason. While I was there I BARELY scratched the surface but fell in love with it nonetheless. I visit there during my novice traveling days. This meant I did not maximize my time as well as I could have because I did not do my research before arriving. I depended completely on people's suggestion or just walking around bumping into something, although that is not always a bad thing. It also means the quality of my photos during my was trip due to my less experienced photo taking skills and my lesser quality camera (although that camera held me down at the time!)
