Superdawg

The Superdawg Drive-In on Milwaukee Avenue is such an awesome Chicagloand institution. My favorite order is a Superdawg with a Pineapple Supershake.

I love the pickled green tomato that comes on the side. We’ve also been to their location in Wheeling which is very nice!

The Old Ferris Wheel

Here are some photos I took of the old Ferris wheel at Chicago’s Navy Pier before it was replaced by the Centennial Wheel in 2016.

The old Ferris wheel was built in 1995, and had 40 gondolas that were open to the air.

We went back again after dinner to see the Chicago skyline at night.
