Things To Do
Cloud Gate aka "The Bean"
Check out "The Bean" and stroll around Millennium Park. Nearby is also the Jay Pritzker Pavillion, the Art Institute of Chicago and Buckingham Fountain.
Chicago River Boat Architecture Tours
The architectural boat tours are a great way to see and learn about Chicago. There are a bunch of different companies that offer tours leaving at various times throughout the day. All the boats leave from the river off/around the cross street where the river meets Michigan Avenue.
Wrigley Field
Squeeze in a visit to the famous Wrigley Field for a Cubs game! They have afternoon (1:20pm) home games on Friday, April 25, Saturday, April 26 and Sunday April 27 vs. the Phillies.
The Art Institute of Chicago
The second-largest art museum in the country, the Art Institute houses a treasure trove from around the globe. The collection of impressionist and postimpressionist paintings is second only to those in France, and the number of surrealist works is tremendous.
