A few years ago we stayed at the Hotel Monaco in Chicago, great river view and I think we also had a little view of Trump Tower. (We paid a little extra for the river view, but since we only stayed one night it was not so bad).<br />We've done the Lake Michigan boat tour but would really love taking a river boat tour. We also still haven't seen the Museum of Science and Industry and that's been on my bucket list for a while now. Definitely need several days to see everything!

Maybe one day, we will be fortunate enough to visit the Windy City again and will have time to take in some of the sights and flavors. I'd love to get a real Chicago style pizza! :p Thanks for dropping by for a look at the letter “D” (dogs) in my A2Z series, <a href="http://curiousasacathy.com/2017/04/aprila2z-art-sketching-through-the-alphabet-d/" rel="nofollow">Art Sketching through the Alphabet</a>!
