Things to do

We are coming to Chicago on 3rd May for 6 nights and are trying to plan what to do.





So far the things we have noted down are:





Sears Tower



Hancock Observatory



Navy Pier



Soldier Field tour



Bulls game (depending on fixtures)?



Millenium Park



Aquarium?



Chicago Theatre (and show?)



Music bars (Buddy Guy%26#39;s?)





Is there anything people would particularly recommend for us to do or does anyone have any comments on the above things we have got so far?





Thanks



Things to do


www.explorechicago.org is a good site to do some research on your own. Also cruise through previous posts in this forum.





I would take Hancock over Sears. No need to visit both.





Check the live music listings at www.chicagoreader.com - the same site is also good for dining searches. Also check www.metromix.com for ideas.



Things to do


You seem to be a sports fan with your soldier field tour and bulls game. You might want to catch a cubs game at the historical wrigley field. They offer tours too on non game days. If you are going to the Aquarium, go to the Field Musuem as well which is right across the street. Field Musuem has all kinds of interesting exhibits and is probably Chicago%26#39;s most notable musuem. Chicago Theatre offers tours as well and is architecturally significant. If there is a show there too while you are there, go for it. There are tons of music bars. Buddy Guy%26#39;s is a classic choice.
