...Whistler...

https://www.whistler.com/images/og/w...untain2015.jpg

Never been here before, although my family vacationed once here, years ago.....maybe 30 years ago.

My parents and siblings stayed at the Whistler's Fairmont Château..... with other close family friends. I was ill that year our family vacationed there. I stayed with my grandparents, my mother's parents, while my family enjoyed Whistler.

Going to Whistler is my idea of a dream come true vacation. :stillheart:

IF you're going to be in the Chicago area, don't pass this place up! Several locations throughout the city!

If you're flying into Chicago's O'Hare field and are unsure of what mode of transport to take to get downtown, by all means take the blue line El train that runs right under the airport terminal station! TRUST me on this, ESPECIALLY if it's during rush hour! As you go sailing past the "parking lot" of an expressway hopefully you'll remember this post and smile to yourself!

With folks traveling this summer don't forget this tip, you'll thank me:hangloose:

Well not so much as go there but do this I guess if you're not that familiar with the windy city! They give a tour as well as fun facts about Chicago and hop on and hop off privileges during any part of the tours

If you want to experience Chicago without all the headaches of traffic and expense of parking this is one way to go! One of the times I took this tour, the tour guide was a huge movie buff and every time we pass anywhere that they had shot any part of a movie he made mention of it....

Miss Katz any chance this is close to your neck of the woods? Perhaps we could go together and maybe stop for lunch sometime?

You might want to go for lunch..the crowd from the Chicago Tribune rushes and and they are a sight to see in and of themselves! Food isn't anything special but it'll fill you up and then it's just a short walk down for dessert at Garrett's Popcorn!

Don't be disappointed if you don't see any billy goats....I think the city of Chicago has a regulation against them being in the city UNLESS of course there is one roaming around out in Wrigleyville!

Don't forget to check out the Mezzanine Level! You reach it by going UP to the second level then going DOWN an escalator.

There used to be some neat stores down there at one time, not sure now, as it's been awhile since I've been there.

Been there, and what's even better now, they added those garage type doors that open up the restaurant's front dining area to get even a better view!

This hotel is just a short ride away from Wrigley Field as well, so book early during baseball season..............

I've done a bit of research and it now appears this has become one of the new trendy "boutique" hotel that are springing up everywhere lately!

Even if you can't score a ticket to a Cubs game, take in the excitement around Wrigleyville...........

If you're going to be in the Seattle area with kids and you're from a place that doesn't have a GameWorks, check out Seattle's at 1511 7th Ave.
