Chicago: Day 3

First day in downtown. Afternoon route: McCormick Center to Atler Planetarium to Shed Aquarium to check-in at the Courtyard Marriot to Hancock Tower to live band at the Blues Chicago. Navy Pier and Apple Store closed, so first up tomorrow.

Hancock Tower. Dine a drink on top of "Big John," you find out why they call Chicago a vertical city. 95 floors up in 40 seconds. A city in itself complete with supermarket, parking, restaurant, and offices. Some people working there never even leave. Imagine that. The highest residences in the world and you don't even have to come down. Plus, how late can you be to work... 30 seconds?
