The Superdawg Drive-In on Milwaukee Avenue is such an awesome Chicagoland institution. 

My favorite order is a Superdawg with a Pineapple Supershake.

The pickled green tomato on the side is unique and delicious.

Their location in Wheeling is also 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.

As a little bonus see below an old photo I took at Navy Pier using 110 Film probably in the winter of 2001. You can see a portion of the old ferris wheel in the background!

Here are some of my recently rediscovered photos of the AIC from 10 years ago that I posted on Twitter using the now defunct ‘Twitpic’ platform. Enjoy!
