In Chicago, the first thing I did was eat the Chicago pizza (remember my previous post when I said I had eaten pizza in every place we'd been so far?). It is seriously the best pizza I have ever tasted. It was so good ... really good. Did I mention it was really, really good? The cheese was the best part. Chicago pizza is famous because it's made in a deep dish, so it has a really fat crust.
After the pizza, we met up with our friend Greg. He lives in an apartment in Lincoln Park. He is a really funny guy. His apartment is really cool because he collects things like turtle shells, fossils, rocks, old books, and maps.
The best part about visiting with Greg was the ride through the city of Chicago in his open-air Jeep, which felt like a roller coaster ride.
We went to a classical musical performance in Millennium Park. It was an outside concert, so I got to play in the park with some other kids. There was a big fountain we all played in.

There were faces on
giant screens with holes where the water came out,
so they looked like they were spitting on you. See here:
It was fun when it would spit out water because then we would all go under it.
See you next blog when I'll be writing about South Dakota.

Stefan,
I think you had better turn around and come back to Chicago for more pizza and fun! Besides, you left a LEGO piece!
I had lots of fun during your visit.
Your friend,
Greg
Cool blog! I love Chicago so I totally agree with you but i haven't tried the pizza. I'll have to do that next time!
dat iz awesum
I live in Chicago and I LOVE IT!!!
Did you try lou malnatis or somthing else
Nice I have had never had any of the “cheesy crust” Chicago pizza but my mom has, and from your description (especially the excessive amount of “really”) and my mom’s it sounds like a mouth watering appetite. About Greg’s collection, I have a question, do you have any collective hobbies, sports hobbies, video games, or any others. If so what are they and are you really into it. I once had a rock collection but then lost them, so now I am a video game freak and when I am not that I am a actives sports addict. L About the classical music performances- ugh, but at least you were able to keep yourself occupied with fun in the fountain.
