Hi everyone! Today I’m going to chat about one of my favorite cities in the U.S.: Chicago. Chicago is an exciting and fun place to visit in its own right and features some of the most interesting attractions around (The Bean, anyone?). As the resident museum\/art\/culture fan here at TUN, I thought I would share a list of some of the best museums to visit in the Windy City. Enjoy \ud83d\ude42<\/p>\n
