The Windy City: Day Two (by night)

After a great day seeing Chicago and just some of the sites, the sun went down and now it was time to hit the town.  We had reservations at the "Signature Room" on the 98th floor(http://www.signatureroom.com) of the John Hancock Tower.  What a view overlooking the city.  After a wonderful dinner, we grabbed a horse drawn carriage and took a one hour tour of the city.  We stopped at the liquor store and grabbed some bubbly to keep us warm.  The neighborhoods outside of the city reminded me of Beacon Hill and Charlestown in Boston, just beautiful.  Just a great end to a great night and mini vacation.  Thanks again Cynthia!

The hotel was beautiful and in the heart of Chicago.

The entrance to the hotel.  A little snow would have made
it a perfect wonderland.

The Signature Room a top the John Hancock Tower on
floor 98.

The famous ferris wheel at the Navy Pier.  It was too
bad it was closed.

Cindy said I am such a huggable guy.  Bears, Lions, Tigers
and me are huggable....WOW!

In order to get a window table, I said we were celebrating our
one year anniversary and we got engaged there three (3)
years ago.  They surprised us with a free dessert.

Cruising the streets of Chicago in the horse drawn carriage.  A
tad cold at the beginning.

so kewl and sexy!!

Bud, not Budweiser, not Air Bud, not Buddy...Just Bud.  He
was a trooper taking us for a one hour ride through the back
roads of Chicago.
