Chicago Day 3

Day 3 was Sunday and it was our last day of our little girls trip! We got ready slowly that morning and checked out of the hotel around 9am. The hotel held onto our bags for us because our flight out wasn't until after 9pm that night, so we still had a big day of adventures ahead of us.

We started with breakfast at The Corner Cafe. It was similar to a Panera Bread and my baked French toast was super yummy!

My mom's pick for the day was to shop at Macy's. We got to the store before it even opened, so we did a little shopping at Old Navy first. I bought stuff for the boys. Of course. Then we headed right across the street to Macy's. A Macy's with 9 floors! Not my ideal of a super fun place, but the fact that my mom told my sister and me that we could each have a $100 shopping spree made it a lot better! We were in Macy's for a quite awhile since we knew we had so much time to kill and I did end up getting some super cute clothes. For myself!

After our shopping spree, we walked over to Michigan Ave and caught the bus again down to the Mag Mile. We went straight to eat lunch a Gino's. Thanks, Val, for the recommendation.


My pictures end there. After our meal we walked in a few stores, but still had about 2 hours to kill before we needed to head towards the airport, so we went to see another movie. This time we saw 22 Jump Street. It was silly, but nice and relaxing after three days of tons of walking.

After the movie, we went and got our bags from the hotel, caught the L back to Midway, and then my mom and sister flew home to Kentucky and I flew home to Connecticut. My flight landed at 1am, so it was a long day for me.

It certainly wasn't the most relaxing trip. All three of us would have loved to have had a pool to just lay by, but it was still super fun. A little getaway was just what I needed to recharge my Momma batteries!
