My boyfriend and I are going to Chicago March 6-9. We’ve found a nice not too expensive hotel to stay in outside of town (The Write Inn Hotel), but we are open to suggestion for interesting places to go while we’re there. I’ve been there once and he’s never been. We’re going to a Blue Man Group show, the planetarium, the aquarium, and probably Navy Pier, but other than that we aren’t sure what we’re going to do- any ideas? Also would like information on parts of town that are dangerous and that we should avoid, because he’s worried that Chicago isn’t very safe.

I’m going to be going to Chicago on February 1st. On February 2nd, a friend of mine from South Korea will be joining me. I will be coming into Chicago via Amtrak, and taking my hotel’s shuttle bus to O’Hare. My friend will be arriving in Terminal 5 (The International Terminal, obviously). I spoke with an operator at O’Hare, and asked about how I would go about meeting up with my friend, and she told me that I would not be able to have any access whatsoever to the terminal unless I myself had a ticket. I asked if there was any threshold between the exit doors and customs where I would be able to stand and wait, lest I stand outside for 30-45 minutes in freezing temperatures. she couldn’t answer that question.

So basically, what I’m trying to do is figure out a meeting place for my friend and I to arrange that won’t confuse either of us without me freezing to death. Is this at all possible, or should I pack two layers of clothes for this day?

Three of us are going to Chicago and we know ZIP! What are some good places to go to that are also relatively cheap. We’re college students so we’re kind poor. Clubs, hotels, anything, points of interest. Please any chicago natives, let us know
restaurants, activities, etc

my mom, sister, and i are going to chicago around the 2nd or 3rd of july. we drive there every summer to spend time with relatives, but my great aunt died recently, so we won’t be able to stay in her house this year as we normally do. so i was wondering if the carelton of oak park is a somewhat inexpencive place to stay. last year, my aunt and a few other people came for the funeral and they stayed at the carelton. i spent a couple of nights with my aunt and i really liked the hotel, but i don’t know the rates.

a hotel in the downtown area woulld be ok too, but that seems like it would be harder since we are driving to chicago and will have to keep a car.

anything will help!! thanks
