There is an enormous wealth of things to do in Chicago when all your work is done and you're all set to kick back.  From sporting events to restaurants to the bar and club scene, the Windy City has something new and exciting everywhere you look.

The lakefront beaches are one of the reasons why visiting Chicago in the spring and summer months is a fantastic idea; with over twenty miles of sprawling sand, areas like Oak Street are popular tanning beds and relaxation areas.

For the traveler who likes to keep him-or-herself in shape, Chicago is one of the best cities in terms of accommodating you.  There are ample locations for bicycling, boating and sailing, ice skating, swimming, and especially jogging.  The lakefront path is a beautiful place for a morning sweat, but stay to the lit areas and keep a few people around you--you know, just in case.

Wrigley Field and the United Center are two places to see the best athletes Chicago has to offer.  The Blackhawks provide consistent entertainment and bone-rocking hits on ice, while the once-mighty Bulls and resurgent Cubs do their respective things nearby, too.  There's nothing quite like a Chicago sports crowd, and it's best to experience this for yourself.

When night falls, be sure to check out Chicago's wealth of restaurants, nightclubs, and watering holes.  You can "get away with murder" at the dinner playhouse of the same name, or hoist a few at Rock Bottom, one of the city's biggest and best bar and restaurants.  Blue Chicago is another of the city's sparkling jewels, as it's host to some of the best jazz and blues music in a city recognized for its skill in that particular area.

Chicago truly has it all, and we personally guarantee that you will never run out of exhilarating activities and places to go throughout your stay.  Have fun and enjoy yourself!
