The last day in downtown Chicago. We started at Navy Pier and had a great view over Lake Michigan and the city.

The Hancock Tower is not as high as the Willis Tower, but you can visit the top for free if you want to visit the lounge or restaurant. If not, the women’s restroom offers also a great panorama (the men’s doesn’t).

Time for the Blues Brothers again, so I took a ride to Cicero to visit Mrs Tarantino’s house, which looks still the same. I finished my Chicago vacation at the Cook County Building.
