Although H had been to Wrigley Field before I met him, he has no pictures to show of the trip with his friends to Chicago. So we decided to re-visit the park & take some photos.
It's always happy hour on vacation, so we stopped in to Harry Caray's Tavern right across the street for drinks and a snack.
I'd love to see the energy and excitement of this ballpark on a game day. It's plopped right down in the middle of a neighborhood- no freeway runs by it, no giant sprawling parking lots surround it.
There was a high school game that day & a nice lady outside gave us free passes to come in & watch the game.
I loved all the rooftop seating on the adjacent buildings. So much history here!
The other Harry Caray's Tavern downtown was just a few blocks from our hotel.
One of our good friends is from Chicago- he still has family that lives there & they own this bar just 2 blocks from our hotel. We went in for a few drinks one night & loved it!
They are serious about their food here...there are some amazing restaurants & I highly recommend reservations if you don't want to wait a few hours (we learned the hard way!)
GOOD NEWS OF THE DAY: My end-of-year office cleaning is done!
