I told you recently that we went via MegaBus to Chicago recently and it was to celebrate 9 LONG years with the hubby.
We hung out with three great couples and had a BLAST.
We lodged at Travel Lodge and although old and received not so uber reviews online, it did its job. I mean we were there for what five hours a day? After a quick strip down of the bed to double check for creepy crawlies we deemed it sufficient for our trip. We did not get a view of the St Patty's parade as hoped (and as requested).
Our four day adventure (which was KIDLESS!!) included a random dive bar that measured about 5x10, including two bathrooms and room for Karaoke - but a SWEET patio. It featured a cardboard hood on a Jeep....
Joseph and the Technicolor Dreamcoat....
And a souped up BMX bike that our buddy rode...
Fogo De Chao (review coming)...
The Plymouth (featured on Diners, Drive Ins and Dives)...
Too many St Patty's shastas...
The green river...
A museum...
Some inappropriate pictures that were senior trip-esque...
And the Navy Pier...
Plus walking, walking and WALKING. But something had to help burn off those tasty drinks! :)
Overall it was a great break from work and life.
What did you do for spring break?
This blog features a family of four mostly normal people doing very boring everyday things. I love to get good deals & coupon finds & will be sharing them with you as I find. I love to read & will also share some good finds & not so good finds, including FREE books once in awhile. We love to eat & do it with gusto so will let you know of any good or terrible places we find around the country too.
