Chicago
I actually worked this weekend. But I’ll get to that in another post. The city of Chicago, well, just downtown and O’Hare International Airport was the location. Downtown is very similar to San Francisco and NYC. Plenty of efficient and inexpensive public transportation. The W Hotel where we stayed at was very contemporary. We actually stayed in both a single and double bedroom over the course of 3 days. The single was kinda cramped, but the double on the last two nights was plenty roomy and comfy. I guess I liked the bathrobe that they had. LOL.
One thing about the tap water in Chicago — it sucks! Way too much chlorine.
But back to the city. We really didn’t get to see much of it as we were working at the trade show, but from the shuttle and train rides, the place looked very nice, with lots of tourist attractions and well architected greenery. The McCormick Convention Center was spectacular. Definitely on par with the Moscone in S.F., perhaps even more grand.
