Dear Chicago,

Dear Chicago,

After spending 4 days in your city I have some notes for you.
1.  Your taxi drivers are CRAZY and honk too much.
2.  Please inform your pedestrians to only cross the street when they are supposed to.  That means they should not cross when there is a red hand and I am supposed to be driving, causing the taxi behind us to honk their horn.
3.  Closing the streets we want to drive on and causing the GPS to "recalculate" 500,000 times is not appreciated.
4.  Your museums are kind of overrated and boring.
5.  The animals in the aquatic show at the aquarium need to listen better so the poor girl narrating the show doesn't have to stall for 10 minutes while the whales swim around instead of exiting the pool. Oh, and the hawk was dumb - eliminate that part from the show.
6.  We only came across ONE nice/not creepy waitrees/waiter the entire time we were there.  I think that says something about the people of your city.
7.  Is it really necessary to charge $22 for only 4 hours of parking?  I don't think so.
8.  Bernardo the segway tour guide is AWESOME.  Pay him more money.

Sincerely, Julie

PS - We were supposed to be there for 5 days but cut our trip short.  Add Chicago to the list of places my poor children will never get to visit.  Disney World is number 1 on that list.
