Agreed Noel. While we were there in Spring, we got lucky & really only had 1 kind of cold & windy day. Of course, that was the day we chose to see the Cubs play in Wrigley Field. But to be honest, though it was chilly in the shade, when the sun shown it was nice in the stadium. But otherwise with so many amazing museums & restaurants, it was not hard to potentially escape a bad day if it occurred while visiting Chicago in the Spring.

Hey Sarah, yeah we agree those warm Spring days were really nice in Chicago because we felt like we shared the city with just the locals who lived there instead of a wild crowd of tourists. Kind of a cool feeling if you ask me. With regards to the Cloud Gate, I don’t think it is still barricaded. This was last spring, so Chicago was still promoting some Social Distancing & health protocols in city run areas.

Chicago really does look like an incredible city to visit at any time. There is so much to see, but visiting in spring sounds idyllic as hopefully you’d get at least some warmer spring days 😊🤞I like the thought of less crowds too! Is Cloud Gate (Bean) closed off now? I am sure I have seen photos of people right by it, but in your photo it looked gated off? Chicago is high on my list and now so even more!

You & Eric (this is Darcee by the way) must be kindred spirits cause he LOVES warm weather too. Must be those Cuban Genetics or being raised in New Orleans. But as long as it isnt too hot, the Next time we come back we want to have you take us around then to all the secret hot spots locals go to in Chicago & I will get Eric to buy us drinks “to cool off”!!

Thanks Khushboo. I hope you can experience Chicago in the Spring or really any time. Whether you visit Chicago over a long weekend or spend a Week to visit, you will truly enjoy all it has to offer!

That is awesome Kiki. I have to admit even living in the U.S., Chicago interested us but we never considered it “Bucket List Worthy”! But I have to say after spending a long weekend in Chicago in the Spring, we were 100% wrong and it has tons of amazing sites, events, and experiences that anyone should enjoy!

Yeah Gervin, Chicago is a pretty popular city here in the states but I too never cared much either way. But I am glad Darcee took me to Chicago for a long weekend to celebrate my birthday. It actually surprised me how cool it was and how many things there are to do in the Second City.

Oh if you have friends there then you have many reasons to Visit Chicago in the Spring or whenever. I am sure your friends can take you not only on the fun tours and activities for tourists in the Windy City but also some local hot spots.

Yeah we took a self-walking Architecture tour, but I think the next time we will definitely take the boat tour to learn more and just relax.
