Christmas in Chicago thru pictures (56K warning)

Last weekend my fiance, Judy, and I took a trip into the city to see all Chicago has to offer during the holidays. Here are the pics we took.

Nice!
I went to Chicago for a conference a couple of years ago and stayed an extra day just to tour the city (hotel was next to the Hanco*k tower).

I got on one of those buses that went around the city that you could get on/off on--never got off (except at the Sears tower!).
I just wanted to see all the buildings. That is one gorgeous city! The architecture is absolutely stunning...thanks for sharing! Looks cold!

My fav part: Chicago deep dish Pizza! (brought one back on the plane!)

Thanks for showing your slice of life. Is that the Dave Mathews bridge in the background of #6?
