The holiday started well, with an upgrade to business class for our flight over – a rare luxury and most welcome on the almost nine-hour journey!
Day one highlights included a breathtaking architectural cruise along the river, (window) shopping on the ‘Magnificent Mile‘ and Millennium Park, featuring ‘The Bean’…

Day two was spent touring River North, the Gold Coast and Lincoln Park and lazing around on North Avenue beach, one of 28 Chicago beaches!
