On Friday, December 29 I flew to Chicago, where we landed in the middle of a snowstorm with only 1 hour delay. The picture above actually shows the view from the plane when I left. The view below is from the Orange line EL towards Midway airport. More on that later.

Once in Chicago Ina and me went to the Sears Tower, "the worlds largest building in 3 out of 4 categories" (makes me wonder what the fourth category is...)

Sears Tower offers a pretty good view of the city. The Navy Pier can be seen extending out into lake Michigan.
