Chicago - NYC

The last leg of the train trip: 





We had a lovely day in Chicago. We had last visited 7 years ago to commence our drive of Route 66 from Chicago to Santa Monica. 

We walked up Adams to Macy’s. Later we crossed the Chicago River. I’d highly recommend the architectural tour of the city by boat. We did it on our last trip. 





En route what did we espy but a Trump tower, 



reaching to the clouds! Every person, we dined with, without exception were not Trump supporters and bemoaned the fact that he has so divided the country. 

From there we turned into State and on to the Golden Mile,





 where the residents of the city were out shopping  on this cool, damp, Sunday morning.  All the NYC shops are located here together with all the finest hotels 



                    The Burberry Building

We returned via the theatre district 



where we ate a very fine Italian meal at Petterino.  Most patrons were heading for the theatre.

We returned to our hotel, collected our bags and made our way to Union Station, where boarded the Lake Shore Limited train for the last leg of the trip to NYC.
