Sears Tower

Today, I went to the top of Sears Tower! It was a wild experience, as on the long elevator ride to the top, you actually feel your ears popping with the pressure change (the same occurs on the ride down as well). Here is a picture I took from my cell phone from the top, overlooking the North portion of the city and the Hancock Observatory (the 2nd tallest building in Chicago). Afterwards, I met some friends and fellow Platinum Select travelers, and hopped on the Double Decker tour bus to get a tour of the city. The tour was so much fun, and I learned some interesting facts about some of the architecture. Don't worry, I took a ton of pictures, I just haven't put them on my computer yet (hence, the cell phone picture only at this time).
