Chicago After Dark

First, let me apologize for the misleading title of this post. Yes, I did spend last night roaming the Chicago after dark with my good friend Julie.

Thing is, last night was a school night, so we had to cut out the planned after-dinner drinks on a patio, and of course the follow-up pub crawl and the always popular dancing 'til dawn.

So what did we do?

Authentic Mexican dinner at Nuevo León in Pilsen;



a quickie tour of murals inside the 18th Street CTA elevated train station;




touring of the classic icons of Chicago;








and a viewing of the latest additions to their magnificent waterfront greenspace.



Ummm.. yeah.. I just have a VERY bright flash!
