First trip to Chicago!

Last weekend it was one of the girls birthdays, so a whole big group of girls went into the city to celebrate her birthday. We had a motel room for the night, a couple of navy guys drove us there, but they had their own room! I have never been to Chicago and it was gorgeous! We didn't get there until about 930 and then headed to dinner as soon as we got there. We went to this restaurant called Dicks Last Resort, basically the waiters are extremely rude to you on purpose! It was pretty entertaining! Most of the girls are over 21 so they all went out to the local clubs near our motel. While the rest of us went to and 18+ club. I have never been so uncomfortable dancing! First, we were on the south side, bad idea. And second I was the only blonde white girl there! Needless to say I stood out in the crowd like a sore thumb! We stayed for a while but not too long.
Once we got back to our motel we wandered the streets for a while and went into the largest McDonalds I have ever seen in my life! IT HAD AN ESCALATOR! How cool is that?! It also had comfy leather chairs, I took this opportunity to do some fantastic people watching :) My favorite! I ended up sleeping on the floor which I was not all too happy about! But all in all it was a good weekend, full of excitement, a bit too much drama! But I live with 12 other girls, it's to be expected! Now I was ready to start my first week with my own group of kids!
