Our two year dating anniversary was May 15th. We decided to do it up right and take a four day weekend trip to Chicago. We planned and planned. The idea was to take the train down early in the morning, see all the important things, eat amazing food, and just enjoy each other for four days.
The morning of the 19th we got up crazy early and got to the train station. I am not a morning person. I can not even really be called a person in the morning. I am some sort of space taking, oxygen using thing that can't be communicated with. Not this morning, on this morning I was a person! It was an anniversary miracle. I was just so excited!
We got to the train, boarded, and had a pretty uneventful ride. *A Piece Of Advice: When riding Amtrak, UPGRADE TO BUSINESS CLASS. Just do it. It's waaaaay better.*
We got to Chicago and rolled our luggage out to the street and realized our hotel was close enough to walk to. Jackpot! Also, our hotel was gorgeous.
With gorgeous staircases.
And gorgeous elevators. (Good thing, because I wasn't about to do all those stairs, we were on the 11th floor!)
So now we were in, we were settled, and we were HUNGRY. We asked the front desk where a good lunch spot was and the woman recommended the Artists Cafe.
Sooooo good. With full tummies we planned the rest of our day. Stay tuned, I'm getting to the good part!
You should display that staircase photo like TV's Rick Castle.
