I want to do some sightseeing on the 3rd. Maybe we can meet up and do it together. That would be fun. I haven't been to Chicago in over ten years.

That would be perfect! :hug:

I'm hoping there will be some fireworks for the 4th of July and we can have a big Interference gathering and go and see them together.

This will be my first time spending the 4th of July in America :hyper:

They will be at Navy Pier. That is what Rich (I Move In Mysterious Ways) told me.

Navy Pier fire works are awesome!!!! (when it doesn't rain :angry:

Fireworks

I'm hoping I can join you folks. I'm from Wisconsin so I can come down for a day or evening.

If you want a special way to see those fireworks, take a cruise on the Tall Ship Windy out of Navy Pier. It's $30 per adult, $20 for kids. I've been on their ship and it's magnificent. I might be able to make it too.

As Kristen and I learned in Montreal, even when it rains, fireworks are still fun

I was so looking forward to the fireworks in Chicago this year, so I'm really glad we'll still end up being there for them :hyper:

And yeah...even in the rain...with wierd men mumbling at you... :lol:
