Chicago looked gorgeous from our balcony. Hyatt Regency has a fairly good bar, where there is a lot of space to move around and is not squishy. We just took our breakfast from here which was a buffet but had great amount of variety. The rooms have plush beds and numerous munching options.
We were staying at Hyatt Regency for 4 days!Activities

From Caramel Crisp, to Cheesecorn, Garrett has both your sweet and salty cravings covered. The flagship store on the Magnificent Mile often has a line around the block. I was confused with so many options in the flavor. A good idea was we picked up some of these on our way to Millennium park.
#garrettpopcorn Never Miss this place when at Chicago. After a brief check-in at Hyatt I immediately moved out since I had very few days and a lot to see. But my priorities are set.Activities

Called as \\\ Cloud Gate\\\ Its glass-like reflective surface provides distorted images of Chicago skyline and visitors feel amused to see their warped reflections on \\\ The Bean\\\ . It was fun sitting in this place and seeing people of all sorts-from teenagers, Guitarist playing,singers singing.
Most touristy place in Chicago, The #bean has a weird aesthetic appeal to it. Millennium park houses various events throughout the year, if you\\\\\\\'re lucky you can get into one.Activities

Neat and Clean and not so crowded.
Chicago is at the shore of Lake Michigan. With lots of beaches and harbors. We chose this place to spend a day with the friends. Take a walk through the whole Lakefront Trail and its all on the beach.Activities

Very crowded must say! Came here for a drink on a sunny day. It is located right on the beach and offers great view of the water. More of a party spot with a DJ and a bunch of beach bros.
While walking through the coast we came across this place full of life.Activities

What froyos! TCBYs is one place that offers best sinful indulgences. You can dump every chocolate, candies, gummies imaginable on your yogurt. Avoid orange sherbet, it might take a toll on your throat.

The new tilt attraction was over quickly (they charge you an extra $7 on top of the $19 ticket once you\\\'re up there) but well worth doing just to experience how weird it is looking down/back on the building you\\\'re standing in. It moves down in 3 increments, so the vertigo does kick in!
Right on the waterfront, it gives a great view of the lake, including navy pier, and the city.Activities

It has a view n place which even Sears Tower (Welles Tower) can\\\'t provide. It has a restaurant at 95 Floor where u can grab a drink n enjoy 360 view of Chicago at night.
A lavish evening at the Signature Lounge. its at the 96th floor with a wonderful view.Activities

Chicagoans of all stripes filter in to the Spirit of Music Garden in Grant Park to boogie on weekends for SummerDance. Instructors lead lessons in samba, tango, rumba or another style. Once the group masters the footwork, a band arrives to play the music. The result is a rip-roaring global party.
A nice surprise. We had heared about it but we werent sure if we could catch up with #summerdance of chicago. Refreshing and recreating for the last day.Activities

A variation on the French dip sandwich, the Italian beef originated in Chicago’s Italian South Side and consists of thinly sliced roast beef, hot and sweet peppers (giardiniera) and Italian bread. It’s often dipped in the juices the beef was cooked in making it as messy as it is delicious.
The last flavor of Chicago to carry home! And I\\\\\\\'ll miss it alot.Activities
