Things I've done that would go on my Chicago Bucket List

As I was writing the previous post about my Chicago Bucket List.  I came to the realization by asking people what might be on there list that people reading this wouldn't have a frame of reference.  They would have no idea what I've already done that would originally be put on the list so here goes again...

In no particular order:

  • Cubs game (bleachers, 1st come 1st served)  (Rooftop)
  • Sox game (was actually a Cubs/Sox game down at the Cell)
  • Bulls game
  • Chicago Fire game (Bridgeview)
  • South Side Irish Parade - discontinued.  RIP
  • Field Museum, Shedd Aquarium, Museum of Science of Industry, etc...
  • Chinatown
  • Multiple festivals - Love summer Chi fests - Mayfest, Oktoberfest, Burger Fest, Sheffield Garden Walk, Belmont Sheffield, and many, many more
  • Hancock Building
  • Sears deck - yes Sears, not Willis - although I haven't been there since they opened the outdoor see through deck
  • Trump Tower - been to the bar a few times.  Ate at the restaurant Sixteen for our engagement dinner.
  • Went on a boat on the Lake - caught 311 and Matisyahu at Northerly Island from the lake, very cool
  • Mag mile shopping
  • Great America
  • Arlington Race Track
  • Lincoln Park Zoo - free, fun, and easy
  • North Ave Beach - one of if not the most popular beach.  Pretty cool restaurant/bar on the beach thats shaped like a ship.  Been playing in a beach volleyball league in the summer for a few years now.
  • Millennium Park - sculptures, etc.
  • Off Broadway play - saw Mary Poppins
Food is coming next.  Oh baby!
