Visited Chicago once in December, freezing cold……I remember Lake Michigan was partly frozen…….but worth it to see the Field Museum
As a Floridian it was pretty memorable…….l could not get warm…….the plane for home kept de-icing forever
Our fourth winter in Chicago was SO bad, that no matter what you wore/how bundled up your were, that freezing wind could still be felt in your bones!
The Field Museum is quite nice; however, the museums in Manhattan ( NYC ) are superior and the Museums in London are as well! I LOVE museums ( have done since I was a tiny child ), so I'm extremely familiar with ALL of the museums in these three cities.
