Heres a list if you wanna sight see, some have been mentioned.

Shedd Aquarium

Gray Line Trolley

Sears Tower Sky Deck

Adler Planetarium

Shoreline Cruise

Navy Pier

Gray Line Grand Tour

Field Museum

Museum of Science and Industry

Art Institute

John Hancock Sky Deck + Signature Room Rest./Bar

The Notebaert Nature Museum

Brookfield Zoo
If you're walking, start at navy pier then head to millenium park>buckingham fountain>cross lake shore and walk by the lake>shedd/adler/field museum. also might as well check out the newly renovated soldier field (they have a tour inside for $20 i think). Free trollies to get around as another option. There are bars just west of lake shore drive on grand ave for downtime.

transit was kickin like 3 years ago. last time i was there was like almost 2 years ago and they let in just about any schmoe off the street. old folks, ugly broads, your FOB uncle, and the dude that sells the hot dogs outside.

went to cherry red about 4 weeks ago. forgot if it was on a friday or sat but is was EMPTY! too much bright lights. restroom was equivelant to an outhouse. i didnt like the place but i still had fun cause i was there with good friends and i always have fun when im wasted.

soundbar is good. seen a few radio personalities there before. after midnight is when that place starts to get fun.

vision is good. especially the sat night CSG. always packed. this is where we been going lately.

buzz is alright. small place.

it's right next to sound-bar. haven't been there in awhile...yeah it's pretty small, but that's good if you know a lot of people there. thursday are latino nights i think?

i seem to end up at sound-bar a lot, but that place gets old. moda has lots of hot girls. i dunno, i need to find some new places to go to.

I have to argue the pizza suggestions: Nancy's and Art of Pizza are excellent!
