Visiting Chicago for the first time ... any suggestions?

The_JP

Hello fellow geeks,

I am speaking at the HOW interactive design event in Chicago in Nov at the Hyatt Regency.

I am going to make fly plans soon, I assume O'Hare is the best airport to go in and out of … I hear it's huge.

Any travel suggests for the airport?

Any travel suggests for visiting chicago in Nov?

Never been to chicago so I don't know what to expect.

Thanks,
JP

I'm assuming that you'll be there in early November. The Hyatt Regency is in the heart of the Loop and is relatively close to the museum campus (Art Institute is in easy walking distance). Millennium Park, home of the Cloud Gate (the Bean) is on the path between the Hyatt and the Art Institute. There are a large number of great restaurants right in the area. Also, Graham Cracker Comics has a location just across the street from Millennium Park.
