Smile ***CHICAGO*** Second visit to The Windy City. Second day

This is a resume of our second day in Chicago, so we´re speaking about February 24th.

That day was cloudy, with a lowest around 7ºF (-14ºC) and a highest around 28ºF (-2ºC). The day was warmer, but windy, so we did some shopping in North Michigan Ave and later, in the evening, we visited Navy Pier.

I hope you enjoy with our experiences about this second day in Chicago.


Just going out from our hotel at Magnificent Mile, in the front, The Driehaus Museum, also known as Nickerson house, a very nice and elegant palace.





And turning the corner of N Wabash Ave to E Erie St, Ramson R. Cable House, a Richardsonian Romanesque-style house at 25 E Erie street.

This is the entrance to our hotel: Holiday Inn Chicago Magnificent Mile, ancient Hotel Cass. That was our hotel in our first visit too, 5 years ago. It´s very well located, at the heart of Magnificent Mile, very near to N Michigan Ave. We stayed there, B&B, for five nights. It needs some renovation, but just for sleeping and having breakfast is good.

Walking to Navy Pier.

The views from there are always amazing













What a better way fo finish the day than having dinner at Bubba Gump, with some fries and seafood...



And a delicious brownie...



Stay tuned for next tour in the next day.

Greetings
