First mission: to go off to explore this amazing city!

A viewpoint of Hancock Tower on the background from Oak Beach; crowded at this time of the year.


The Marina's City Twin Towers, with their impressive shape.
Let's have a look at the below part of these towers: it's a parking for residents!!!
Morevover, just above the Chicago River! One might as well say that if the driver is a bit too drunk or just answer a call... it could be legendary!!




The famous Tribune Tower, home to the the Chicago Tribune, a major daily newspaper based in Chicago.


Nice view of old Downtown, with several of oldest Chicagoan skyscrapers.



Strangely it was the first Mc Donald's that i passed... (save maybe the Mc Do in the airport, and maybe one in the campus, and maybe on each street we covered up to now... ^^).

Here is Yann in front of the huge Chicago Public Library.


Why is that confounded Jack Sparrow in State Street (one of Chicago's main streets)!

The Chicago Loop Alliance, company in charge of the Chicago business district interests, created the Streetscape initiative to activate and beautify State Street by enhancing the pedestrian experience, drive traffic to member businesses and provide opportunities to create and foster unique partnerships with other Loop businesses.


Thus, here it's a partnership with the Field Museum of Natural History (one of the main Museums in Chicago) on which there is the exhibition "Journey into the exciting world of Pirates"

































Departure from Chinatown redline station. Here we can see in the background the Chicago's skyline.
