Thanksgiving! ! That is a long weekend and that must be used properly of course. Therefore I moved it to Chicago last weekend ...
weekend 9th-11.10:
On Friday morning it was time to 5 clock going in the morning because we had about 700km to go. Fortunately we had never really jam and we arrived after about an hour over the borders into the United States. The weather was poor, but today was only announced on shopping anyway. On the way a great many "Outlet Store", which is more or less a factory outlet. These outlet stores are smaller villages with tons of small shops of all kinds of brands. And the things are really cheap. T-shirts for 3 or 5 €, jeans and shoes for 10-20 € for 20 €. This must of course take advantage of it and I once spent 200 Euro quickly, but I've also bought a lot of real things:
the evening we arrived quite late but then in Chicago and had dinner only in a small bar around the corner. went on Saturday it will finally go into the Big City! In the tourist info we got the same one super city guide to first get a rough idea of the city. Of course, we have also seen the famous bean from Chicago:
The skyline is just wonderful: 
the evening, then went to the Hancock Tower to the city from above and sometimes at night to see! Real impressive. Then there was still the famous "Deep Dish" pizza, so a "real american" pizza which is about 5cm thick: 
Then we were all eaten so full that we do not go out once more wanted, but only an extensive wanted make dinner walk. Well, but still ended in a bar .. On Sunday it was the Adler Planetarium, where you can quickly spend even one day. There are two major planetariums and even a 3D cinema, so it is definitely worth a visit. For me as an astronomy student ever! In the evening we went to Chinatown to eat and then in a nice jazz bar! Unfortunately, on Monday
was the weekend already over and we drove back to Hamilton. We did, however, still hold at the Science Museum and watched the U-boat "U 505" to. Very impressive and a very nice museum, unfortunately, was also in the U.S. public holiday on Monday and therefore it was pretty crowded. On the return trip we made another stop at an outlet store and bought another one a couple of things. On Tuesday morning by 1 clock we were all happy again, but also tired back in Hamilton. All in all, I must say that was a very successful road trip!
