- You can walk everywhere, and there is so much to see!
- One minute you feel like you're in a big city, but you hop on the train and a few minutes later, you're in Lincoln Park {or someplace else!}.
- Gino's east {famous Chicago pizza}.
- Macy's at Christmas time.
- Walking around in a coat, scarf, gloves, and Uggs.
- Seeing Snow in the weather forecast on my iPhone.
- The bean! Oh, how I loved the bean.
- Lincoln Park. The most wonderful place I've ever been. I loved it.
- Starbucks. I loved walking the streets with a caramel macchiato, although my new fave {thanks, Kels} is a nonfat peppermint latte. Too bad those are seasonal.
- Not needing a car. You can hop on the train or take a cab.
- Everything is right there. You can be at a clothing store one minute, and a few shops down there's a CVS. Things are a lot more spread out than in LA.
- A cab driver told us that every summer there are movies played in the park. So charming.
- The theater. You can walk there, too! No 45 min drive downtown and $15 parking.
- The trees.
- Everyone walking around in coats. It really makes the season feel so much nicer.
- Navy Pier.
- The lights. The buildings. The sounds. Such a beautiful city.
- iKelsey. Not sure how I would have found my way around without her.
