Day 4

Today the sun came out! I can't believe that I'm looking forward to sun, but I can actually see Chicago without ducking inside from the weather. In the morning I went thrift store shopping with a friend. I accidentally left my keys and phone inside the apartment so I had to carry my big garbage bag full of thrift store finds all over the city. I took the bus and drove all around the lake front. Everyone was outside and enjoying the sun. I decided to go to the touristy Navy Pier. It was great being outside next to the water and watching all the people. I got to the apartment at night, lucky that someone was home to let me in. I relaxed and watched a horror movie on TV.
