Cool, I love your plan to Chicago. Me and my boyfriend are also planning to visit Chicago on the weekend of March 15! I'm super excited. I also wanted to go check out many of the attractions that you listed on yours. I think that Chicago will be a great place to sit back, relax, and unwind. It will be a great getaway! Well, I hope that your trip to Chicago will be the best ever! Give us feedback on how your trip went! :D
