Recap of our Chicago - Madison - Milwaukee Trip

Here's a quick recap and some of pictures.

Keith and I left Raleigh around 8 am Friday morning and landed in Chicago around 11 am where we were greeted by Anna and Jimmy. We headed to the hotel to drop off the car and bags and that's where our adventures began. We ate lunch at Ed Debevic's then headed down The Magnificent Mile (said in my best Oprah voice) to the Hancock Building where we had drinks and took in the skyline. We then headed to Navy Pier then back to the hotel for Happy Hour. After Happy Hour, we went to Zanie's Comedy Club.






Now for Saturday... We played in the Bean and went to the Planetarium. After the Planetarium, Keith wanted a Chicago -style hotdog so we ate lunch at Portillo's before we made our way to Madison.




Now for Sunday... we took in all things Madison like the University of Wisconsin - Madison, the Capital, The Old Fashioned, and Cave of the Mounds.



Now for Monday... we headed to Milwaukee so Keith and I could fly back home. Before the flight, we toured the Miller Brewery and had lunch at Mader's. The tour was great, but here's my thoughts on beer...ugh.
