The day started out at the hotel on the 30th floor. Kyle and I decided to get a workout and take a swim in the spa department... And i gotta say, it felt GOOOD!
Then when we got back to our room we got welcomed by George and she gave us our Valentines gifts :) It tasted SOOO awesome!! Especially the one with berries!!! ;)
Then we went shopping for a while and we started out at the huge mall close to us called the water tower place! And I bought some more stuff for my trip to Hawaii that is in 9 days btw :) I'm super excited!!!! I bought a pair of flip flops and a shirt, they are all on the picture in the bottom of the blogpost! Then we went to H&M again and Kyle found these green chinos that he thought was awesome! He wanted them so he tried them, I tried them on just for fun! ;) And after trying them on he wanted them so he bought them! I didn't though ;)
We also went to two of my favorite stores in Sweden! American Apperal and Urban Outfitters! Everything was very expensive in American Apperal so I didn't buy anything there so I went in to Urban Outfitters, it was the store next to American. And I found A LOT of cool stuff there and it was pretty cheep! :) So I bought a Awesome "casual dress shirt" ;), a awesome cardigan and a really green and awesome scarf ;) haha! :) I also bought a Valentines gift for Georgeanne, a four clover, that is suppose to give good luck. I picked it because she is from Ireland hehe :) These are the stuff I bought the final day of shopping ;) And once again I did pretty good ;)
Then we went to a French restaurant to eat some food and my food was pretty awesome! Can't remember what it was called but it was really good and George had some sort of Chicken, Cheese crapes (thin pancakes) it was AMAZING! They had this wall where they put up some of the days headlines!
Hahahahah then when we were just going to go up in the second tallest building in Chicago, Hancock Tower we saw the Blues brothers hahah! It was pretty awesome, they played the same music, wore the same clothes, and I don't know if they drive that kind of car but they had a sticker with the real ones on the side of the car, and they pretty much looked exactly like them! hahah it was awesome! :)
I saw this awesome globe of the world with footprints over it and I though it was kind of funny seing small Sweden there! ;)
So we bought the tickets and started walking up the tower! It have about 100 floors!!! Lol i'm just kidding! We went up the SUPER fast elevator, it is actually the fastest Elevator in the whole US ;) They said that it traveled all the way up in 40.0 seconds in 20.0 m/s but i felt like we were just traveling for a couple of seconds! ;) it was pretty awesome!
The first thing we saw when we got up there was the blue sky and as you start walking amazed you start to see the Lake Michigan, then the shadows of the towers and the when you stood just an inch from the window you could see everything else and it was one of the most amazing views i have EVER seen! It was soo beautiful!
I have never ever ever been in a skyskraper or ever seen one! The highest building i've been in is the Eifeltower! It was pretty sweet too but idk if it counts as a skyskraper even though it is as tall as one! And I was only on the second level soo, this was way more exciting!! :)You could pretty much see the whole city and it was soooooooooo amazing!! :) These are another view! It shows downtown Chicago! COOL ha?!
This is probably one of the better pictures of me so I just wanted to put it up here! ;) lol
And a picture of Kyle and I with the beautiful shoreline in the background! Kyle wasn't as excited as I was going up in the tower, i mean he has seen a lot of skyscrapers! Even though he was pretty excited! ;)
And a picture of all the three of us! I LOVE THIS PICTURE! Its a good picture of all of us except that me and Kyle have some shadows in our faces but hahah who cares its awesome anyway! haha!
They had some souvenir stuff up there and one of them was this wooden platform with chicago as a poster background! hahahahahaha! This was so much fun and all the people watching us laughed! haha ;) And one of them approached George and asked her if Kyle and I were brothers :) hahah! ;) I mean we sertanly act like it haha :)
And by that picture i'm wrapping up the Chicago trip! ;) I had a BLAST but i only wish that I could've stayed longer and done some more seightseeing but I guess we'll have to do that next time.. that means March 12 when i go see Muse!!!!!!! :D :D :D AWESOME!
Anyway I had A GREAT weekend and I love Chicago soo much and cant wait for the next time! But before that I have Hawaii too look forward too and that is going to be even more fun!!!!
I have been enjoying these constant updates every day of my days in Chicago and will probably do something similar with Hawaii!! :) For you who haven't been in Chicago..... GO THERE! That's all from me! I'll ttyl later and see ya all later xoxo <3
