The city of Chicago!

​

Once I arrived in Chicago, I went out straight away because I was so excited!
First, I visited the Skydeck of the Willis Tower which is located on the 103rd floor. The view is so impressive and I would recommend everyone to go there! Willis Tower is the premier corporate office building in Chicago and it is the tallest in the Western Hemisphere. The tower is 443 meters high and including the antenna it is 520 meters. Therefore, it is the twelfth-tallest building in the world. The Skydeck is 412 meters above the ground which makes it the highest observation deck in the United States. I admired the views for a while and then continued walking to the Monroe Harbor. Here, I sat down at the Michigan Lake for a moment as it was very hot. Then I moved on to Millennium Park which is a public park located in the Loop and originally intended to celebrate the second millennium. The park has a lot to offer, including the famous sculpture Cloud Gate also nicknamed The Bean because of its shape. I liked the sculpture, you can see the skyline of the city in the Cloud Gate’s reflection. After taking loads of pictures, I moved on and walked randomly around in the city. Before coming to Chicago some friends told me to order the famous Chicago Pizza, so I decided to look for it as I became hungry. I ended up at a very famous restaurant called Lou Malnati’s Pizzeria. I must admit, it was delicious! After dinner, I was so tired I went back to the hotel. It was a beautiful day!

Also, when we flew back home, we passed above Greenland which was so peaceful beautiful to look at!
