Excellent video! I'm glad to have grown up and lived in Chicago (Logan Square) for over 35 years. Such an interesting city!

[@MeansToTravel]

Totally agree! Thanks so much for watching the video! 😀

We loved Chicago, it was great! Wow we missed the popcorn and donuts. We where there in Nov. so no beach and we are From Seattle and not huge sports fans. Wish we could done the parks, but we did go to the zoo. Our kids where a bit older when we went. Love all you and miss your live videos, I missed the last of you all together. Hope you are all well and staying safe.

[@MeansToTravel]

Thanks so much for watching, and I’m really glad you’ve been here to Chicago with your kiddos! Sorry about our November weather, but it sounds like you still found some of the fun stuff to do! And we actually filmed this video on the same day as our livestream we did together, haha!

Something about pizzas & waiting, go during an odd time. I went to Chicago for a business trip once. I went to Giordano's at around 2:30-3:00. There was probably two other people in the place not counting the bartender & waiters/waitresses. If you have kids, if you don't wanna wait around, go then.

[@MeansToTravel]

Great point!

[@addie-eileenpaige6460]

@@MeansToTravel thank you for your response.

[@thomasreiser]

See if the restaurant will let you order on arrival to cut wait time for pizza

[@MeansToTravel]

YESSS! Great tip, Thomas! 🙏😀

[@mr.meanstotravel]

Now I’ve got a hankering for some Pequods pizza!

My favorite place in the greater Chicagoland metro area (yes, I am making a joke) is Fermilab. They have great tours and it is a great way to get tweens their sci-fi/sci-reality fix.

[@MeansToTravel]

Thanks for the tip, I've never been there!

[@matthewveteto8379]

Reach to the Info, in the future it might be better to record inside. The wind is picking up so much of your information.

[@MeansToTravel]

Sorry about that!

[@Chillaxing113]

Lincoln Park Zoo is really nice!! The Museum of Science and Industry is fun for adults too!! I love love LOVE the Field Museum! And Shedd Aquarium too! 👍👍

[@MeansToTravel]

Yes, I agree they’re such great, world-class attractions! Thanks!

I visited Chicago two or three times about 10 years ago. But it sounds like it's become so unsafe now. Any safety concerns? Safety suggestions?

[@MeansToTravel]

I live in Chicago now, and I usually feel safer here than when I lived in NYC. Treat Chicago like you’d treat any other big city: avoid dangerous neighborhoods, try not to dress or act in a way that screams tourist, ignore and avoid anyone who makes you uncomfortable, and keep an alertness about you when you’re in public.

[@Chillaxing113]

@@MeansToTravel thank you

[@jammie4u]

1st tip!! Don't Go!!!

[@MeansToTravel]

Sorry it's not your cup of tea. I live in Chicago and personally like it here very much.
