Christmas in Chicago

The city was so quiet today...
Most of shops were closed.


We had almost nowhere to visit.
And, it was so cold today... honestly it was freezing...


First, we planed to see University of Chicago.
So, we took a train and rode off in the closest station.


..however, we couldn't find University of Chicago and it was so cold, so we gave up to look for it and came back to the main area.


Almost all shops were closed. It was not easy to find a restaurant.
As I wrote many times, it was really cold today.

We couldn't be outside.
Finally, we stayed in Union Station and killed a time.


After that we went to Sears Tower, the tallest building in America.
We wait for another person, who is Brazilian and now is working in Canada.

....We couldn't meet...
It is because he was waiting for us in our room.
Also, we waited him for 50 minutes inside of Sears Tower.

We went up and saw the whole city from 103 floor in Sears Tower.
The view was amazing, even though there were little light from office buildings because of Christmas break.


I upload a photo of the night view of Chicago.
