Right, I'm not going. I'm bummed out about it, but I have a big event on the 5th that I can't miss. I have been known recently to take spontaneous road trips (Minneapolis to Milwaukee to see Mindless Self Indulgence, anyone?) so it's possible that my thing on the 5th will get over and I'll be like, "I'm bored...I'll go to Chicago." In which case, I'll give Ouch! a call and ask where you guys are at, meet you somewhere, etc etc etc. It shall be teh epic funz.
Anyone who says sunshine brings happiness has never danced in the rain.
Also, bring lots of $$ for tolls. There are a ton of tolls and they are like 80 cents each or more. They have these huge lanes where you will see people driving fast but that is for people with I-Pass. Unless you are from the greater chicagoland area...you more than most likely do not have I-Pass so don't go through them XP
It appears as though I now have plans on the Fourth, involving the following:
Should I just ask the bank for like 50 bucks in one dollar bills?
pg "Yeah I'm going to the USA...to see the sights"
teller "I'm sure"
pg ">.<"
Chicago, Illinois, Union Station - Chicago's stop for all arrivals and departures is located adjacent to Union Station on the east side of South Canal Street, between Jackson Blvd and Adams Street.
Where's the hotel again? I am going to be so lost.
You and me both. Luckily we both have the same drop off point from our buses.Originally Posted by Clouded Sky

The hotel has a pool?
Yes. In fact if you clicked on the link there's a picture of it ^_^
I am depending 100% on you all coordinating stuff with Joy.
I'm doing it. It's driving her nuts to talk to an asian but I'm doing it.
:grumble:
So is someone going to be able to come pick me up from Union station or am I supposed to pay for the most expensive taxi ever?
Taxi? Why >.>
First you need to post the following
1) What time you are arriving
2) What you are arriving by(grey hound, some other bus, train)
I will probably be driving around but there are other ways to get places other than taxi.
Metra - Welcome to Metra
Then there are CTA trains and buses as well.
Hey, thanks! I'm going to be completely lost when I get to Chicago.
I'm arriving via Megabus at 7:30pm at "Chicago, Illinois, Union Station - Chicago's stop for all arrivals and departures is located adjacent to Union Station on the east side of South Canal Street, between Jackson Blvd and Adams Street."
Good. Union station is a bit of a transit hub. Metra trains leave there as well as ogilvie station and grey hound is just down the way. The hotel is close to a metra station.
I imagine your arrival time to be about 8 though. Of all the times Joy has come down it has rarely been on time let alone early.
Edit: Talk to Joy about stuff.
