Hello all and Happy Friday!
What a week!
It began by flying back to Chicago with my sister to see the one and only, Lady Gaga!
While we were there, we explored the city a bit. I showed her two of my favorite places from my first time in Chicago. The Sky Deck, and The Bean! The Sky Deck was incredible as always! This time it was a beautiful, sunny day so it was arguably even more incredible than last time!

We grabbed a quick bite inside the Willis Tower before heading off to my favorite place, The Bean!
Upon exiting the Willis Tower, I instantly clocked a pedicab parked outside and convinced my sister into riding it to the Bean, much to her chagrin. We rode through the city, blasting Lady Gaga to get us in the spirit for the show! Our bike driver was nice, and we caught him shimmying a time or two on our trip.
The Bean was just as magical to me as it was the time before!
We found a hotdog/lemondade stand where we got a Chicago style hot dog. It was remarkable! Sweet relish, jalapenos, a pickle spear, mustard, onions (don't quote me on this, I may be incorrect on some of the toppings). But you know, it was really good! A very interesting combination of flavors but not bad! I would definitely try it again!

After a little bit of a rest, it was time for the show!
It was incredible! Almost hard to put into words! Gaga was at the top of her game the whole show! It was extremely theatrical. There were a lot of costume changes, set changes, and high energy performances! She performed almost all of the songs on the Mayhem album as well A LOT of her big hits throughout the years!
As excited as I was for the show, I was really happy for my sister. She's been a HUGE Gaga fan for years! She had gotten tickets to another concert years earlier and Gaga ended up breaking her hip and had to cancel. So, this was the next opportunity my sister has had to see her all these years later. And it was so wholesome to see her so happy and excited!
So, Roo (her nickname!) thanks for a great time in Chicago! I'll go back anytime!
