Things to
Do in Chicago
|
The windy city has so many attractions and sites for travelers who wish
to spend their vacation in Chicago. Sporting events, trips to the top
of the Sears Tower, and a visit to the Art Institute of Chicago are
just a few of the activities and attractions to keep you occupied during
your vacation in Chicago. Besides these key attractions you can also
enjoy authentic ethnic foods. Chicago is known for having several different
ethnic neighborhoods such as Chinatown and Greektown where you can travel
into the neighborhood for authentic foods and a feel for the native
country of the inhabitants.
Chicago has a storied sports history that includes the baseball, basketball,
football and hockey. With so many sports teams calling Chicago home,
any time of year is a good time for seeing Chicago’s sports at their
best. Even if you travel during the off season of your favorite team,
you still may be able to take a tour of the stadium or arena. Historic
Wrigley Field is home to the Chicago Cubs while the Chicago White Sox
call Comisky Park home. The United Center is home to the city’s football
and basketball teams. Although the two teams share the facility, you
can visit at any time to get a real feel for either club.
Who could resist the opportunity to visit the Sears Tower and travel
to the top to observe the city of Chicago? The elevator whisks you to
the Skydeck atop the tower that stands 1,353 feet above the ground in
only a matter of a few seconds. Here you have the opportunity to look
out over your surroundings. On a clear day you can see for almost 50
feet in all directions. The view directly below you is very worthwhile
as well. Looking down on the bustling city, the people and cars hurrying
look like ants preparing for the winter. This awe inspiring view makes
it clear that the city below, for all its grandness, is still only a
tiny piece of the entire world.
Chicago is rich with museums and boasts over 20 museums residing within
the city. Each of them offers you a unique perspective but none is more
outstanding than the Art Institute of Chicago. This museum is home to
over 300,000 pieces of art and some displays change periodically throughout
the year. At the Art Institute of Chicago, you can spend hours viewing
the artwork and analyzing the symbolism behind each piece or you can
view the art casually not looking deeper than whether or not you like
the piece on the surface. Either way you are sure to have an enjoyable
day at the museum.
Visitors to Chicago will not be disappointed by the many activities
that there are to enjoy in this city. Visiting some of the historic
sports fields is just one of the many ways to enjoy your trip to Chicago.
Taking a trip to the top of Sears Tower is another attraction that can’t
be missed when you visit Chicago. Finally, the Art Institute of Chicago
is another attraction for those who want to enjoy some cultural enrichment
during their travels.

How
I get free airline tickets & travel on a shoestring
budget...
|
 Myth:
Cheapest fares are always found online.
 Truth:
Wrong. Many of the wholesale airline contracts are prohibited
from being marketed on a website. If you're only searching Expedia,
Orbitz, Travelocity and the like, you're not seeing all the
really discounted fares that are available.
Myth:
Buying direct from the airlines is good.
Truth:
Wrong again. You just eliminated the possibility of buying a
consolidator airfare, which is almost always cheaper than anything
the airlines offer, and, the cheapest airfare are sold
only by travel agencies.
Myth:
The airlines sell off unsold seats cheap at the last minute.
Truth:
This myth can cost you big time or the cancellation of your
plans if you're not willing to pay the exorbitant price the
airlines want to extort from you. Believing this myth proves
you have no clue about the airlines' distribution system.
