CHICAGO!! Part One

On the monorail at the Tampa airport

 Addison loves to fly!


 Checking out the safety info card.
 Downtown from the airplane!
 Loading our car with ALL our bags!
 Riding to the Waldorf Astoria.
 Highly recommend the Waldorf.  Excellent service, perfect location, etc!




 View from one of our windows...
 A lovely street.  Would love to live here!
 Hey!  One for sale!  We called... it was 7000 square feet!  We had no idea is was that big.
 Awesome restaurant... Chicago Q.  Delicious food served in an upscale way but reasonably priced!  Excellent service, again!  I think we had about 5 people helping us!
 Addison's dinner.
 Our hotel.
 Addison loved to help open our door with the key.
 When we arrived back to our room the first night, we had a card inviting us to the kitchen to take a tour and have some freshly baked cookies!  How fun!

 On our balcony.
 Breakfast Day 2- before the Cubs game!
 Getting our train card!

 WAY crowded train!  Everyone was headed to the game!
 A little warm... see the rosy cheeks!
 Addison Street!



 Listening to music.
 Our seats at the game.






 Addison LOVES her cub claw!
 After the Cubs game, we took a walk to the Navy Pier!  Perfect timing because there weren't lines for the rides, and the city lights were very pretty.







 In line for the ferris wheel.




 Day 3 breakfast.
 Our celeb spotting!  Giuliana and Bill Rancic!  2 of our favorite celebs!

 Addison's exciting trip to the American Girl store!
 She picked out which baby she wanted!
 She picked the pea pod Halloween costume.
 The lady got her doll...

 Holding him for the first time!
 Proud mommy!
 Posing with all her shopping bags.
 Disney Store
 LEGO store


 Helping with the elevator
 On a horse and carriage ride


 We strolled by our hotel along the way.



 Giordano's Pizza... yum!

 Very late night!!
