You don't need to go far to travel

Point and shoot: Chicago

Here are additional photos taken during my stay in Chicago:

View from the Willis Tower

It was a trippy feeling being over that ledge! (I made that face on purpose, though :P)

View of Chicago from the John Hancock Observatory. I actually prefer the view here over the Willis Tower.

Beautiful Chicago skyscrapers! This view is also from the John Hancock Observatory, located on the 94th floor of the building.

Tilt is an attraction located in the John Hancock Observatory. It’s similar to the ledge at the Willis Tower, except the glass tilts out at an angle, so it kind of feels like you’re falling! It’s $5 and it’s a pretty brief – but cool – experience.

A washed-out photo of the beautiful Buckingham Fountain!

A Divvy Bike station in Chicago.

This reminded me of New York – except cleaner.

Took a walking break here. It was nice to be shaded by trees 🙂

A pond at the Lincoln Zoo.

The Lincoln Zoo.

Taken at the Judy Istock butterfly garden the Peggy Notebaert Nature Museum.

Me at Navy Pier! Photo courtesy of a family friend that I got to meet up with because I was in the area. It was nice to meet her 🙂

My final day in Chicago was rainy. It truly pours when it rains here!
