Lake Michigan in Chicago by Georgete
It’s Labor Day weekend! Though Chicago has plenty of tourists, the weekend started very quite in downtown. No traffic at all and I’m enjoying it. Chicagoans definitely have left the city to spend this long weekend somewhere else.
For those outside U.S., Labor Day is a national holiday that is over 100 years old. In Brazil, we celebrated it on May 1st.
Above e is my favorite picture today. Took it at Onshore drive this morning.

I’ve been taking pictures of Chicago since I moved to this gorgeous city, last August. Despite of a long winter (believe me, even a Chicagoan would agree with me), I haven’t found myself bored yet. There is so much to do and to discover.
Cultural events and artistic manifestations happen everywhere. Just walking down the charming streets of my neighborhood is a special entertainment by itself. I can’t have enough of Chicago’s architecture, buildings, parks, people, museums, you name it.
Here are my favorite images of Chicago. By the way, I am so ready for summer season! Bet you would too …

Once I was told that we should wake up everyday saying “thank God it’s today.” But nothing sounds more exciting than Fridays, specially if compared to Mondays (duh!). As The Cure would sing “Sunday always comes too late. But Friday, never hesitate …”
