chicago trip part 1

we stayed at the congress plaza hotel. which is old and really beautiful.


the lobby.

night view from our window. i was actually surprised that we had such a nice view.



view in the day time.



this was really funny. the same print was on two walls in our room. only the colors are slightly different.


even the stairs were ornate and pretty.


on the last day we went looking for the ballroom. is is really beautiful. sculptures and ornate carvings everywhere. it was a little creepy cause it's on one floor by itself and it was dark. i had to turn the lights on.
