I grew up in Chicago in the 60s and 70s. Was raised by my mother and grandmother, who surrounded me with books, and I’m so grateful for that! This vlog was an absolute delight.
I was born and raised here so I obviously love it. I also work right on the river so I always go outside for lunch and see the tour boats pass by. I’m glad you all had a good time! Next time you should definitely visit in the summer. You can take a ghost tour, watch a Broadway show, go to a Cubs game, there’s so much to do!
Loved this video, so fun! Great job, Gabby. Time lapse videography with especially the boats going and coming back was really cool. I've been to Chicago a bunch of times because my Mom lived there for a long time. You still showed me a bunch of stuff I never knew about which is awesome. That suite upgrade? Sweet!! What a view! Your guitar pick is superb. Jan's gifts to you were so thoughtful, as you said. I want to do the riverboat architecture tour! Oh, and Deep Purple, the English band, is one of my favorites! 🖤
🖤 Amazing job with the footage! Thanks for taking us along. That over-voice with the traveling that you did in the beginning was really well done! So glad you had an incredible trip!
Such a great fun vlog of Chicago. Love seeing you with your mom and sister just enjoying each other. Thanks for sharing so much of your trip and outings. Makes me want to go and explore the city. 😊
I was thinking about sweet Tanker last night… and one clip of him that has forever stuck in my head as a favourite is one hot summer day Tank is belly down flat out on a cooling mat in front of a fan, and I thought now this boy has got it all figured out 😂🥰 He was a special guy ❤ truly captured hearts around the world So glad you girls had such a memorable trip in Chicago! I truly believe your Tank is looking out for you and is sending y’all all the good karma!! 🥰🥰🥰 🖤🖤🖤
🖤🖤 Loved this vlog and yes it looks so much like new york, my dream destination from Europe to new york. So happy you guys had an amazing time. You deserve it so much after all the pain and sadness 😢❤️
Sending your family the biggest hugs. I’m so glad that you had such a good trip (waves from Iowa - welcome to the Midwest 😊) that skyscraper lamp thing in your hotel room (what an amazing upgrade) was so cool!!
I’m so glad you guys had such a positive experience and love that you brought us along! I love Chicago and have been a bunch of times for work - my company is actually headquartered on the same street as your hotel, like a 20-second walk away! Chicago is so open and pretty with all its parks. And I’m glad you loved the architecture boat tour, it’s awesome! Great time of year to go, too - I’ve often gone in December and it’s a windchill of like -20, it gets crazy cold! Even though I’ve been there a lot, I’ve never visited Bucket O Blood, so I’ll have to check it out next time! 🥰
@@case4147 no way that’s so cool! I didn’t know your company was so close! That area is so beautiful 🤩 wow -20 wind chill sounds insane haha I’m glad we went when we did! Bucket O’Blood is definitely worth a visit 😍
Very lucky that we live only 90 minutes from Chicago. . . what we think is the most beautiful city in the country (so much to see and do too). Recommend you come back to visit Myopic Bookstore in Bucktown & the annual Printer's Row book festival!
I OmG! really enjoyed this! Gabby you did amazing job filming I love what I saw I was so interested I didn’t want it to end I have family in Chicago! Would love to go & visit! ❤ I love this! 😊
Ooh I’m so glad you girls went to the Windy City! lol it makes me want to go back to D.C so bad and your hotel view? Chef’s kiss 💋 thank u for showing your travels love em!
I really liked The Last One at the Wedding! I gave it a 4 star. I think you’ll like it a lot. Absolutely loved this vlog, I hope to visit Chicago some day soon!
🖤🖤🖤🖤🖤Always love your vlogs🖤🖤🖤🖤🖤 thank you for sharing this with us! I live in St. Louis, gone to Chicago a lot, but haven’t been in some time. Brings back so many memories. Have a Happy Halloween🎃🖤
Great to see you back in a new video. Oh my goodness, Guillotine is absolutely brilliant, I loved it when I read it last week. Absolutely great book and I had to give it 5 stars ❤ Chicago looks mind blowing, your hotel is phenomenal
I'm glad you enjoyed Chicago. It's an amazing city. I lived in the midwest for 6 years and visited Chicago several times. One of my favorite places to go was the Museum of Science and Industry. It's incredible, so many amazing exhibits. I also visited The Art Institute of Chicago and the Museum of Natural History. And the food - so many wonderful places to eat. One of my favorites is the Berghoff. Lastly, I was thrilled to visit for the St. Patrick's Day parade and seeing the river died green.
the way i've still never even been to the nutella cafe haha my mom waited in like a 4hr line when it first opened i was like hell no lol & i also call them strawbs 😂😂
Great vlog as always! You never disappoint 🖤🖤🖤Chicago looks like it would be a place I would enjoy. Also, You are so beautiful! You have flawless, porcelain skin!
I always enjoy your videos but this one was so stunning! I felt like I was on this trip with you all. You did such an amazing job of showing us the beautiful city of Chicago. I’ve never really wanted to visit the city until I watched your video. If you ever decide to create a channel dedicated to travel vlogging I’d definitely subscribe! 🖤🫶🏽
I really enjoyed this video, because I also watch Jan. She is also friends with another you tuber I enjoy watching, she very funny it’s Christine’s Snaps. Thanks for the video!!🖤🖤
Yes I love Chicago. My boyfriend and I have been to Chicago with my son especially when he was little and we went to the aquarium and Museums Etc. at least 5 times and we always do something fun. I would love to go to the Nutella place but unfortunately my son is highly allergic which sucks. Ha ha
Um, how dare you visit Chicago and not eat a Chicago dog! 😂 Next time make sure you get one! Also, that view right outside your window is where they filmed battle scenes from Transformers Dark of the Moon
Ok, first things first, I hope you guys drank water, so much eating sugar. Chicago is on my bucket list, I dream to walk the river and ride the boat. Your views omg to die for. Yes , you feel alive hey.
