HEY CHICAGO!!

After the train ride into the city, and visiting the Privatebank Theater (and seeing the ROOM WHERE IT HAPPENS)... we were HUNGRY...

But I knew EXACTLY where we should go!! Right across the street...the Beef 'n Brandy!!

They have one of those huge menus you find in a family owned Greek restaurant.

We were all SO HAPPY!! And the food was so delicious -- I forgot to take pictures...

Lilly wanted  Jackie to see the amazing MARSHALL FIELDS store. (now Macy's). It was only a few blocks -- so we went walking...

From Wikipedia:
The 13-story granite building was constructed in stages between 1891-1892 and 1914 on a partitioned block with sections that were added to the building in 1902, 1906, 1907, and 1914.

For a time, the building was the largest store in the world at 73 acres of floorspace, with the largest book, china, shoe, and toy departments of all the world's department stores.

The current building has several atria: A Louis Comfort Tiffany, (1848-1933), mosaic vaulted ceiling dome caps a 5-story balconied atrium in the southwest corner; the northwest section has a 13-story skylit atrium, and a newer atrium with a fountain in the center is bridged by double escalator banks.

The Tiffany Ceiling is over 6,000 square feet and it is the first iridescent glass dome and it continues to be the largest glass mosaic of its kind.

Then, we saw the iconic clock.

The store windows had amazing fashions.  Hey -- WE COULD MAKE THESE JEANS, LILLY!!

The atrium...

It is AMAZING space.

On the 7th floor -- they were waving at the people across the street, enjoying their rooftop space.

Sitting on the fountain. They tossed in some coins to make a wish.
