Our Chicago 2006 trip was a blast. We ate at Ed Debevic's, visited the Museum Science & Industry, the Field Museum, and visited with Family and friends. If you visit the Museum of Science & Industry, be sure bring an extra $5.00 to make your own Gravitron at the ToyMaker 3000. This neat display has you follow along the assembly process as your customized toy is being built.
The GPS came in very handy. Navigating was a breeze; however, we did learn a few things about GPS receivers on this trip.
1) The GPS receiver didn't really like the business district of Chicago. It seemed to get "lost" in the tall buildings.
2) The "Shortest Distance" option should probably be avoided in densely populated cities. Not only did it take us to our destination via city streets, it took us into some areas of town we didn't originally intend to visit.
