I can't help but follow the major sports, but the NBA is definitely down on my list... I'm with you on football

Or what about places that you havn't been but always wanted to go?

OK, realize there are no popularity points in the following statement, but I travel a ton for work and long to stay home and just spend lazy weekends driving/training into NYC and seeing the sights. Have been thru most of Europe, and Croatia is my hands down favorite. A lot like Italy, but less crowded and inexpensive. Beautiful coastline. While the big cities are "must sees" the less traveled cities (Budapest, Prague, Ljubljana etc) are really worth seeing before they get too touristy. Have been to Japan, but still want to go to China. Africa is next on my list. I want to see elephants, lions and giraffes, oh my.

Croatia, thats not smewhere I would have thought of but if its like Italy I'm adding it to my list.

I was given the goal of making it to 1500 before the end of the weekend and I only have about 45min left. I do believe I'm up to the challenge.

No offense taken.

lkc01234 - 2009-06-14 4:49 PM This will be my last one about Chicago...(and please realize I've not lived here all my life...so there is SOOO much to see and do that I don't know about - but this is very basic)

FOOD:
- MUST HAVE CHICAGO style PIZZA!!! whether it be Lou Malnati's or Giordano's or Aurelios or ?!?! I know you said you don't eat too much greasy...but this is worth the splurge - and one piece is usually enough!!
Also depending on if you're staying in burbs:
- Portillo's is REALLY good. It's a hot dog place and polish sausage and all that stuff - but they actually have pretty good salads too.
- Other "chicago" known places - Billy Goats Tavern (kinda in the greasy food though) but they are the place from the SNL skit: "Cheezborger! Cheezborger! No fries, cheeps! No Pepsi, Coke!"? There are a couple locations - one is on Navy Pier, while not the "original" place...Navy Pier is pretty cool too (big ferris wheel there...)
-Also there is a popcorn place - that silly me hasn't been to - but is supposed to be really good - called garrett popcorn which has the "Chicago" mix which is caramel corn and cheddar popcorn...which sounds kinda gross - but is yummy!
- Signature room in John Hancock building (the other tall building in Chicago) Is a good place for lunch - not terribly expensive. I've never been there but my mom RAVES about the bathrooms. She says the woman's bathroom on the 96th floor (or something like that) have a FANTASTIC view :-D

Chicago-style hot dogs are a must to do.

I grew up in Milwaukee and I have a lot of family in the Chicago area. Reading all this is making me a little homesick.

Ok what is a chicago style hot dog?

kcarroll - 2009-06-14 8:29 PM Congrats to the nephew!! Did you bring your podcasts to the ceremony?

Ouch mom, I'm crossing my fingers and toes for you too in the hopes that she won't need surgery. Poor thing, glad she's not feeling it though.

I had the namo, but they had families assigned to pews and we were in direct line of sight with the Bishop. Even I'm not that bold.

Yeah I wouldn't be that bold either.
