My mother, sister (16) and I (18) are going to spend a few days in Chicago this August. I have to plan it, so I was wondering if there was anything inexpensive we could do.
I have some other questions too like is a CityPass ticket, at $49.50 a person, worth it? Apparently they get you into the Adler Planetarium, Field Museum, Shedd Aquarium, Museum of Science and Industry and the Hancock Obeservatory. And are these places really interesting? Are balcony seats, at about $30-50, to shows like "Wicked" or "The Color Purple" any good? What are some safe, decent hotels in the $100-130 a night ranges near Union Station? And where exactly is Union Station (we're coming by train)? Is Michagan Ave worth visiting? And what's the best form of transportation for people who are used to driving everywhere? What do you think a 16 yr old would like to do?
Lastly, if you had only $125 or so (not including food, hotel or transportation) to spend per person for 3 days, what would you do?
