Chicago is a beautiful city! It is exciting and vibrant and full of history. One way to learn about the stunning architecture is to experience an architectural cruise on the Seadog. This is a very popular speedboat that leaves from Navy Pier, which in itself is an exciting place to hang out and enjoy Chicago. Here is the description from the website:

In the summer of 2009, when I took one of these cruises, I recall a point when we were surrounded by buildings. I just allowed my head to fall back and took it all in. It was breathtaking! The tour was really much more than I anticipated. As the summer winds down consider taking the opportunity to enjoy 75 minutes of fun and information!
