I'm planning a weekend trip to Chicago with my girlfriend, and we want to see the city but we don't have much money. We have an amazing hotel in Downtown, and I'm hoping that we can find some things to do that are free or like really cheap. I can find our way around Chicago pretty easily and we want to ride the CTA train as much as possible.
We will be in Chicago at the end of September Our flight lands in Chicago at 8:45pm on Friday and we leave early Monday morning. I do have some activities planned. We are going to two museums on Sunday, and then we are going to Grant and Millennium park to take pictures. We'd like to have a romantic dinner somewhere on Sunday night.
We have no Idea what to do on Friday evening or all-day Saturday. My girlfriend and I both like poetry and we want to score some amazing pizza. We don't like shopping, don't have enough money to see a play, and we are both students. We might go to a club for dancing, but it would need to be 18 plus as she cannot legally drink yet. (i can)
What do you all suggest that two 20-something lesbians who are broke do in Chicago at the end of September? Are there any amazing fall festivities going on?
Ps: we're from Minneapolis, we're black, and we want the trip to be both fun AND romantic.
