We're going to have some gorgeous weather here in Chicago this weekend, so your trip is well timed!

If you're museum oriented, skip the new Modern Wing of the Art Institute! But the Field Museum has a couple of new excellent exhibits if you haven't been in a while. And Shedd Aquarium just re-opened their dolphin aquarium.

And don't miss the "Bean" in Millenium Park (really, 'Cloud Sculpture') - get a pic of you under it!

Yeah be sure to grab a Chicago Cheesesteak. I hear they are famous there.

A Portillo's 'everything' dog for $2.29 can't be beat (100 W. Ontario if downtown). Good pickle, too. Just discovered there are a couple of them in CA!

Did you get your tickets to go to the Oprah show? How about the Bears vs. Cardinals game on Sunday? I'll be waiting for your Jazz report, be sure to get names and pictures. Oh, and have a great time! :beer:

I thought Chicago was the Motor City. They do have awesome hot dogs there, try Royal Palace Systems near Wrigley, a few doors up from the Cubby Bear across the street .

I have the night off here in Berlin. Thinking I'll go see the Leaning Tower or Big Ben. Decisions, decisions.

No New York is the Windy City. Chicago's the Big Apple.
