Chicago Travel Tips
Friday, October 30th, 2009
I’m going through Hartfeild Jackson International Airport to Chicago. What are some tips. WEre Traveling around noon so i know it will be crazy.
Thanks <3 You
Travel tips for flying…
1.) Make sure you don’t bring anything (liquids over 3 ounces, sharp objects, etc.) that the TSA will not allow in your baggage. If you need to be searched or detained it takes a lot longer to get through security.
2.) Make sure to bring enough money, your cell phone (if you have one), and your ID.
3.) Bring plenty of gum for the plane ride.
4.) You may want to bring something to eat, but be sure not to bring drinks onto the plane. They will give you something to drink, but you are not allowed to bring your own on the plane.
5.) Have a fun trip!

Best of the Midwest: Rediscovering America’s Heartland $19.95 Join Midwest Living(R) magazine’s Dan Kaercher as he revisits dozens of his favorite places across the Midwest. From vibrant cities to serene small towns and splendid parklands, Dan rediscovers the heart of the Heartland – its varied history, rich heritage, and unique scenery. Each lavishly illustrated chapter tells many fascinating stories of the twelve Midwestern states: Illinois, Indiana, Iowa, Kansas, Michigan, Minnesota, Missouri, Nebraska, North Dakota, Ohio, South Dakota, and Wisconsin.

Chicago River: An Illustrated History and Guide to the River and its Wanderings $20 “The river has seen it all, done it all, carried it all,” writes David Solzman. “Its current whispers of the past even as it rushes into the future. Those who know the river and its connected streams know Chicago in an elemental way. In a strong sense, the river is Chicago. Follow the river and travel into the soul of the city.” The river is indeed the soul of the city—it runs through the heart of downtown, and it is a vehicle for both pleasure and the industry that keeps Chicago humming. With The Chicago River, Solzman has succeeded in writing an encyclopedic work—at once guidebook and history—that explores the river’s physical character and natural history. Examining the river’s past, contemplating its present, and forecasting its future, Solzman draws on his unparalleled knowledge to point out places of scientific and historic interest—involving everything from infamous murder cases to invasive zebra mussels. The book’s 200 photographs and maps perfectly complement Solzman’s vivid prose, leading readers on a visual journey as sinuous as the river it celebrates—a journey interspersed with plenty of river lore, facts, and literary quotations. Solzman, a veteran Chicago River tour guide, has also compiled a diverse collection of easy and enjoyable tours for anyone who wants to experience the river by foot, boat, canoe, or car. And he provides an appendix that lists river-related organizations, museums, tours, and riverfront restaurants and clubs. With practical tips, evocative language, and an astonishing array of anecdotes, The Chicago River is themost comprehensive guide to the river and its waterways, the perfect companion for everyone from the active river enthusiast to the armchair traveler. |
