Chicago finale - Sears Tower

It’s an overcast day and they say thunder is due but it doesn’t appear and the day heats up!
We head downtown and take the riverside walk with the skyscrapers! Trumps place is big but ground floors look empty !
We decide on another great breakfast at Lou’s as it’s close to the Tower!
The Tower is now the Willis Tower and is much more organised these days with a lot of good information on Chicago before you take the lift to the 100 plus floor ! I’d forgotten that it was only built in 1973 and was once the tallest building !
The views are great and the new sky ledge that juts out - pretty weird !
There are a couple of guys cleaning the windows up there on the outside , and then they add some glue fixative to the outside ! That’s reassuring !

A walk around the city , another beer at the Goat Tavern for lunch , and a hike up the mile as it’s getting quite hot and with the humidity it’s tiring! Some old hotels have a welcome but of air con !
Methinks another deep dish pizza night before we depart to Toronto.En savoir plus
