travelling at the end of the year...

Closer to when you come, also check out www.metromix.com because that'll list basically everything going on for a particular day or week. You've gotten loads of shopping recommendations, so I won't repeat. There are lots of museums if you like that sort of thing, theater and some fabulous restaurants. It will most likely be cold unless it is a crazy winter like this year. Hope you enjoy your trip!

I've put a deposit down on my trip!!! weeeeeeee heeeeeeeeeeeeee! well, it was only $250 right on the visa! now the visa is taking a rest as it was cut up right after that payment! :cry:

Michigan Ave is a must as well as Oak Street, but you should also consider Southport Ave, lots of little shops along that street.
The Art Institute also a must see.
Have drinks at the John Hancock and see the skyline
Steaks and the Chicago Chop House
