Chicago day two

Chicago day two Woke up with a hangover 🙈 worst feeling ever! I dashed some paracetamol and hoped for the best. Amy and I went down and grabbed some muffins and juice and went back to the room. We both got dressed and ready, but while waiting for the others we both fell asleep. Eventually we were all awake and ready by 10am. We headed out for an all day bus pass and some cooked breakfast! Firstly CVS had no bus passes left so we headed to the next one, they didn't sell them. So we headed to breakfast. I can't remember the name but it looked exactly like diners you see on american films with the tables on one with a mirror wall, all along one side with the bar parallel, totally exciting. I had breakfast twos, two eggs, two sausages, two bacon and two pancakes. She asked me how id like them and i said fried... She said easy over? I had no idea what this meant. I always thought the Americans said 'sunny side up?' Anyway I established I would have them over medium. There was free coffee refills and free iced water. You didn't even need to ask, they filled up your cup before you had even had the last swig. Our server had really cool green hair too and said she loved our outfits. She also said she loved English fashion especially ASOS, apparently the US version doesn't have as many cool clothes for purchase. Our food arrived, and I'm not joking when I say it was HUGE. The pancakes were bigger than my face. I definitely couldn't eat it all, despite it being amazing and all! We left the diner and were faced with rain but alas we were prepared with waterproofs. We put them on and headed to millennium park via american apparel. I bought a cheeky dress for only $30. We got to millennium park and no sooner had we got there and taken a few snaps a random man pounced on Helen and Amy after hearing there accents and asked them to be in a video for his son. He was very friendly (but old) we wanted to get away from him so Helen pulled her phone out to create an excuse to leave, which ended with her dropping it on the floor. There was the unmistakeable sound of a screen cracking as it fell face down. The man was nice enough to direct us to the apple shop. We spent the next hour and a half in there while Helen sorted her phone out. It was quite a good coincidence, as it gave us chance to speak to family and upload pictures which we can't do on the van wifi. After the phone was sorted we headed to Hancock tower. According to the guys from Bobbys bike tour this is better than the Willis Tower and FREE! We headed up to the 96th floor, and straight to the women's bathroom which has the best views of the city and Lake Michigan. The drinks were ridiculously priced so we had a Pepsi each (Helen had earl grey). Ben strolled in on his own so we invited him to join. After slowly drinking our drinks we headed back down to ground zero. I suddenly felt sick, we decided to get a taxi back to the hostel. Everyone wanted to go back to get ready for the baseball game and Amy and I wanted to chill before going out to watch the free film in millennium park. I had a sleep and woke up feeling much better. Only Amy, Tommy, Nick and I weren't going to the baseball. We hadn't been with them all day but arranged to meet them at 6.20pm to head out to the free film. On the way I grabbed a flat bread and we walked down to the park. The free film was American Graffiti. I have no clue why it was called that and I wouldn't watch it again. The rest of the free film summer programme looked awesome, even the wizard of oz was being played one week, oh well, it's pot luck I guess. After enduring the film till the end we walked to navy pier and had a walk around there which was really nice and gave me time to bond with Nick as he is South Korean he gets a bit lost in group conversations. After a long night I grabbed a McDonalds and we all headed back to the hostel for an early night for our early start the next day.
