I miss my hometown. I had my prom at Navy Pier way before it was redesigned as an entertainment area. Glad to see they are allowing kayaking on the Chicago River. It wasn't safe for that kind of recreation when I was growing up. It was still too polluted.

Thin crush pizzas are the best imo. In Europe, middle & low-income families prefer deep dish & spaghetti because those foods help them feel full longer.

Did you rent a car or rideshare? How did you get around to so many places in a short period of time. I am going next week. Great video and suggestions.

@MarkandDonna 7 ай бұрын
We just walked everywhere. It helped staying at a hotel in a central location. We stayed at citizen M which was close to both the Riverwalk and millennium park. We still ended up waking roughly 10 miles a day though, but using rideshares could definitely help. Hope you have a great time!

That's a tough choice. Both are great options, but I think I'd have to go with NYC. We haven't been to NY in about 5 years, (long before we were doing KZfaq), but we plan to visit next year to make a NYC video as well

Have you ever written such a snide comment about Detroit, Baltimore, Memphis, Newark, New Orleans, St. Louis, East St. Louis, Cleveland, K.C., D.C., L.A., Inside Job City, Philadelphia, Little Rock, Milwaukee, Oakland, Gary, Mobile, Jackson, Camden, Birmingham, Flint, Louisville, Cincinnati, Atlanta, Buffalo, etc.?
