Describe your favorite Chicago Urban Adventure
Hitting the Lake for a run. Check out some of the serious Chess players at North Avenue/Fullerton. Head over to Navy Pier for some free live music and a great view of the Lake. Walk along the lakefront bike path to Chicago Avenue. Cruise along the Magnificent Mile to do some window shopping. Finish up at my favorite restaurant, Naniwa, for dinner outside.
