4. The neighborhoods...so much interesting history, so many different people.
5. OBAMA!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Debiw781 One of my friends is from Chicago and loves it 😊. One day... 7y
Mimi28 You're right it's great here! I miss the crisp air and snow of the winter right now. Heck I even miss the wind! My brain feels like it's frying this summer. 7y
AlaMich @Mimi28 I have to respectfully disagree with you on the "missing snow" thing. If it came and went in a month, it'd be great. But Lordy it does drag on and on... 7y

Mimi28 Lol, sorry. I must admit I don't drive or travel much. I only walk to the store and to the library. I guess if I got out more I wouldn't like it much either. 7y
saresmoore Chicago is such a cool city! 7y
AlaMich @saresmoore It is! Sadly, though, some people think it is flyover country. 7y
Gezemice We live in Central Illinois and drive up on occasion. We love the lake, the museums, the food, the ridiculous amount of things to do. And it is plain impressive. Chicago is great to visit - but I wouldn't want to live there. Too big, too busy, too noisy, too much traffic. Too hard to get to work, too expensive... 7y
Centique Was just scrolling through your posts and seeing that you live in Chicago but loved visiting New Zealand - while I live in NZ and Chicago is my favourite city! How cool is that? I've only been to Chicago in the summer though - love the lake and the museums so much! 7y
AlaMich @Centique OMG, I would LOVE to go back to NZ! I spent two weeks doing the Kiwi Experience by myself 25 years ago...gah. So incredibly beautiful. Where do you live? 7y
Centique @AlaMich I live in Auckland on the north shore - which is a smaller part that has lots of beaches. If you ever come back come and visit! We mostly stayed in the middle of the city when we visited Chicago but we went to Schaumburg and Gurnee. Anywhere near you? Did that Chicago Architecture River Cruise - loved it! 7y
AlaMich @Centique Yes, the cruise is great! I live in Evanston, on the northern border of Chicago. Our Kiwi bus left from Auckland but I don't remember much. I'd love to come visit you; same goes in reverse! 😊 7y
Centique Thank you @AlaMich 😊💕 7y
