I bought our Go Chicago Cards:) Now Patrick is in charge of the Hotel (eeeekkkk) I just pray we have a roof over our head when we get there. In all fairness he is pretty good at finding places to stay he did find our home here in WI with no help for me. We have to buy our passes to the Harry potter exhibit separately and we want to book our sailboat tour (included in the Go Chicago card) before we go. We have spoken with our pet sitter and she's all in for the trip:) We also have Red Sox tickets for Friday night(Patrick gave them to me as a gift last Valentines day). We can get our transportation passes when we arrive and we are holding off on six flags tickets until we have a better idea as to what the weather will be like. One big set back with the hotels is that car parking fee... can you believe it? Hotels don't come with parking you have to pay extra as a guest of the hotel to park your car!! INSANE So may times we have thought we had a good hotel that was affordable to be blown away by parking cost even hostel for 2 people and parking can be 80+. No needless to say we are still working on this.. one option is something like The loop Chicago hotel but I guess its a hotel in a "up and coming area" the reviews don't speak well about the neighborhood at night... and the parking is fee but not watched or gated. Frustrating...oh well that's the update for now! Hope all is well back home. Hear your weather is much better than ours has been!! JEALOUS but I hear your all enjoying it and you deserve it after all that rain you had so soak up the sun and think of us working all weekend...
love an hugs from WI
