Last Friday we did one of the things we had in our to-do list in Chicago. Our adviser from Holland, Bert Meijer, was visiting Evanston to give a lecture in a nanotechnology symposium. After the meetings and stuff, we spent the day with him together with Igor and Patricia.
After lunch we headed towards Chicago river to buy the tickets for the boat trip. I have to say that it was a wonderful experience, we enjoyed the spectacular view of the city with all its buildings and skyscrapers. After the river, the boat entered into lake Michigan and we could have a great view of the city. Here I show you some pictures of the tour and a movie I made once we were in the lake. It was the most similar thing to a holiday since we arrived in USA :)
