This Sunday we are going to hit CHICAGO again! This time, we are aiming for sightseeing. My colleague recommended a spot somewhere parallel to Navy Pier but its a distcance away nearer to the planetorium. It was supposed to be a cheap carpark but good view sort of stuff. "Cheap and good", in true singaorean spirit.

But before we go, Lets hit the Elly's pancake first before setting down on the road.

Today we are in or the kill man, we called the "apple Pie" to share and eat on top of our main dish. And here is the magnificent apple pie:



And my main dish: True blu Belgium Waffle wih 2 sausage and hash brown as a side dish. You can see the "finished" apple pie. Good job folks! Now lets attack our main dish.... OMG.



After a filling lunch, we set off to Chicago. This time, I took the chance to take more pictures of the chicago landscape and buildings. Luckily got sin-roof car, can take pictures without borders.


A artistic shot below. hoho.



A faraway shot, you can see the ferris wheel in the pic although it is kind of small. The dtretch of stuff on the left of the buildings is called Navy Pier, A attraction here.



A up close shot of the ferris wheel. Actually we were not supposed to drive here, but Holland and came to this part of the road. Lucky we were able to U-turn instead of entering the carpark here and pay a huge sum of money.



And we at last reach the spot we wanted to come. And took a nice photo of the landscape of chicago city with a small portion of lake Michigan as the foreground.



In the picture below, you can see low rising land on the right that stretches out into the sea? Thats Navy Pier.


We actually was "quite Lucky" to get a parking slot around this stretch of road. In the end, we found that we were parking just beside the water hose. Thats why no body park there, its not suppose to be for parking. Oh well... lucky nobody come and fine us. Anyways, I took a picture of their carpark meter:



After this, my friends went to Levis for the Kill. As i dont wear jeans, I went out of the shop to walk around. Stumbled into this shopping mall and found quite a nice view too. And happily too a picture:


Also took a picture of a artistic feature :


Blue trees... interesting eh.

After this, we wento off to eat at Bob Chin crab and steak restaurant. The alaskan crab is huge and the beef good. but unfortunately, I go tconference call and hastily ate up the food in 10 min and went off. Forgeting to take a picture of it too.
