My first trip to Chicago (out of three in total, so in love with this city) was for St Patricks Day! If you're ever in America for St Patricks Day, Chicago is the place to be to celebrate it. It took us 8 hours on a mega bus to get to Chicago from Minnesota and in was a beautiful ride through Wisconin to get there and we rode all through the night and a thunderstorm. We arrived in Chicago at 6.20 AM and got ready for the day in a McDonalds toilet booth since nothing else was open that early. After a while we met up with a girl I met at our Au pair training school in New York, and she showed us around and it's truly an amazing city. And for the celebration Chicago color their river green, it looks so sick!
After a while we also met up with Olivia, a girl we met at the weekend class in LA and dropped of our lugage at her place where we stayed the night as well, an amazing apartment downtown with an amazing veiw. After a bunch of sightseeing we went to some of Olivias friends and ended up at a rooftop. Such an amazing St Patricks day and I really do recomend people to visit this clean, friendly and beautiful city!
