You get the idea. UBER was $50+. LYFT was $60+. And lots of traffic delays. How about the L? A six minute walk from the hotel to the CTA Adams/Wabash station. A Good Samaritan helped me with my bags up the stairs. Watch the monitors. The train was a couple of minutes early. Tap your card. It was just $2.50 per person and the orange line goes directly to Midway. This is the last stop on the line. Plus, we got there at least 15 minutes earlier than the UBER/Lyft ETA. There is Hope. Interesting to see the suicide & crisis lifeline information at the station. Call, chat or text 988 if you need help. A shocking murder-suicide in Houston earlier this week, this sign really made me think. On this Mother's Day, hug your mom, your children, your grandparents a little tighter.

Via the green line, I was able to commute to this station from the west-side of the city. An efficient station that will connect you to sights within downtown Chicago like Grant Park, The Art Institute of Chicago, Millennium Park, and even the Historic Route 66 Begin Sign; the iconic Historic Route 66 Begin Sign which is located downstairs of this elevated platform. At this station you can also transfer to other lines like green, pink, purple, orange, and brown. Opened by Lake Street Elevated Railroad in 1896 before being incorporated into Charles Yerkes's Union Loop in October 1897. From back then to now, the station has had its share of renovations and makeovers. It is well-maintained, yet with some clear signs of cracked paint and rust on its interior frame. And I also could not ignore the faded out social distancing signs which will forever remind us of covid-19 in the years to come. I have to say that my visits to-and-from CTA - Adams/Wabash have been very pleasant, thankfully! And with that, it makes me very open to making it part of my commutes into downtown Chicago. ~Keep it simple. ~ Thomas G

Of course, there's other stuff here too. Get off here to go to the Adler Planetarium, Field Museum, and Shedd Aquarium, along with other less known museums. There's also buses that take you right there. Better than driving. There's also no paying for parking. Here you can walk over to many attractions. It's best known for being close to Soldier Field and museums. There's buses for those not wanting to do as much walking.

The menu is very interesting and the cook is excellent Cook. The menu is excellent food clean is thoroughly cooked Just one suggestion at this point. Please cut down on the salt. Your vegetable shouldn't be salty. The Greens are overly salty. I could tell The Yams ingredients are genuine because normally you can taste the ginger or the cinnamon and you can also tell if there's honey or maple syrup and there's no butter flavored neither so maybe it was a can yam so that's not good. It's not good at all. The fish is superb. I can say all the meats are excellent. It's just a side dishes aren't genuine. The side dishes are canned goods and bagged frozen vegetables And last, but not the least, make sure that the hostess understands the order properly My experience was I ordered , I ordered a 3 course meal plus two separate sides. Instead I received my 2 separate sides inside of the actual meal plate and my meal sides in a container It was corrected once I went back into the restaurant, but who wants to leave and have to come back to get it corrected especially when you're on parking meter.

Few things can get me to write about a transit system - but this is the third transit review I've…read morewritten regarding the CTA! I've only taken the 146 out and back to the museum campus once, while visiting your fair city. Clean, quick, efficient... those terms all come to mind regarding the 146. The only shot of local color came in the afternoon, after a LONG day at the museum. Having been in the queue for two full double-buses, we finally got on the next one. The driver noticed a young man in a motorized wheelchair, and politely commanded everyone else to get out of the way while he deployed the ramp and allowed the young man and his family to get on - and then allowed the throng of humanity to continue boarding. I was lucky enough to snag a seat near the front, because it allowed me to witness what happened 10 or so blocks later... At a regular stop, there were a number of riders waiting to board the bus - including a woman that was also on a motorized wheelchair. The driver repeated his instructions to the others waiting to board, and allowed her to get on first. ...but that's when things started to unravel. She claimed she couldn't get past the young man in his wheelchair, although he was apparently scooted over as far as he could go, and was secured properly. Instead of waiting for assistance or reasoning things out, she decided to 'floor it' and ram on past him - and she did - taking a piece that attached a wire harness to his chair in the process, and interlocking her wheels with his. To this, she spouted venom... ...and along came the driver, who helped to extricate her (as she continued to rant) and then he retrieved the pieces of the young man's chair, and handed them to his father. Grace under fire. The driver kept good humor and a positive attitude throughout the ordeal. Kudos to the 146 driver!

Or has the driver seeing you running for it and been cool and waited? Or maybe crazy enough it stops to let people on and off. Yes - once you get on the bus, it is going the route slow. & at busy times when it is crazy full of tourists from the museum campus... yes it acts in tandem. Welcome to Chicago... we have lot's of people who live here & visit here if you haven't noticed. So often busy times on a route the CTA is cognizant and adds more bus's to the route to carry the route demand. That explains why a packed bus will pass you, because one right behind it won't treat you like a sardine. You are Welcome. So I organized a field trip to the Shedd for the ladies in our River North building today & we had a nice trip there with a Yellow taxi large enough to accommodate our group of 5. I recommend visitors calling if they need group transportation. Not a bad trip back on the bus. Slow as it is going down State st. & then Michigan of which neither are renowned for not being bogged down with traffic. If you are in a hurry hoof it or hop off at the Roosevelt stop for Red, Orange or Green lines. Go a few more blocks for Brown or Red. Our group hopped off to see the Macy window's and then a short walk home with a stop at the always awesome Nonina for dinner.

It was fairly empty when I rode it, but I think that's because all sensible people were in bed getting some shut eye. I reserve the right to change my opinion in the future, I mean it is the CTA and all. This ride could've been an anomaly. We'll see how I feel on my return ride home.
