USA day 8 - Arrival in Chicago

28 Jun - We finally bid farewell to San Francisco to embark on our next journey to the windy city, Chicago. Previously, the only thing I know about Chicago is the Chicago Bulls (basketball team) made famous by Michael Jordan. Upon my arrival, I realize that the city has a vibrant mix between being a modern financial district and a city actively promoting arts.

The return of the Stanley Cup to Chicago, celebrated by the entire city
