Chicago Chocolate Tour Take Three!

It may seem like I'm a little obsessed...okay, maybe I am, but seriously, I love going down to the city, I love chocolate, I love the Chicago Chocolate Tours! This time I treated my friend Alison to a Chicago Chocolate Tour for her birthday.

We went on Tuesday when it was snowing a ton so it took us a while to get down to the city, but we made it just in time to meet our tour in Macy's. This time we did the downtown loop tour, which is the same tour I did with Kathy in March, except we got to go to the Christkindl Market in Daley Plaza which was really cool! It felt Christmas-y to be downtown when it was snowing and there were people and lights and music everywhere. I loved every second of it. I will definitely go down again next year to visit Macy's and then go to the Christkindl Market.

The giant, heavy clocks outside of Marshall Field's (sigh, now Macy's)
The big Christmas tree in Daley Plaza. I liked it even though it was just one big tree this year instead of a million little ones put together. This one had character!
Alison and I at the Christkindl Market! Like my new hat? I couldn't resist...and I needed a hat...it was snowing people!
