We had another fantastic day in Chicago 
today.
We started with a tour of Chicago’s gangster history with “Untouchable Tours” 
. Our excellent (and genuinely hilarious) tour guide talked to us about some of Chicago’s more famous mobsters such as Al Capone 
and John Dillinger whilst showing us some of the sights like the scene of the St. Valentines day massacre and some of their favourite hangouts in Little Italy and Downtown.
We then took a walk back through millenium park (finished 4 years late in 2004!) and got some good photos of the Cloud Gate (or “the bean” as the locals call it).
To complete our trip to Chicago we finished the night with a speedboat fireworks cruise. We were treated to a bit of Guns ‘n’ Roses as we bumped and splashed across the waves before the boat bought us back and stopped about 100m off of Navy Pier for us to watch the fireworks.
I’m going to miss Chicago, but we’re off on a cross-country trip tomorrow towards Yellowstone Park. It’s going to take us a few days to get there and we don’t have any hotels booked along the way so this is where the road trip starts in earnest. We’ll probably update the blog in a few days when we get there.
