- Marc in Madison
Chicago Road/Train Trip
Updated: Apr 7, 2019
What do you do when your nephew visits for spring break?
Hit the road to the Amtrak Station, then take the train to Chicago! We have an amazing few days in the Windy City. We were two backpack gypsies wearing Air Pods staying in a five-star hotel (the Waldorf Astoria).
We shopped, people watched, had good good food (and coffee for Uncle Marc), and had adventures. It was the nephews' first time in Chicago, so it was neat to see his reaction to a whole new world.
It felt great to get away and to be part of the urgency and energy of Chicago, even if just for a few days.
