If you would have asked me a year ago if I had any interest in seeing a parade, I would tell you no… I lived up north where the only Parade was the Macy parade for Thanksgiving.
I didn’t live near the area as well as the thought of sitting around in the freezing was dumb to me, well my spouse got resituated for work to Chicago Illinois, however he had family there as well as was excited to go… The change from NY to Illinois wasn’t all that bizarre weather wise.
I didn’t realize how much better the actual area was. There is a ton to do in Chicago. There are theaters, parks, professional athletic activitying events as well as festivals going on all the time. The food is superb as well as the people are entirely nice, then one thing my spouse insists upon doing every year is seeing the Chicago Thanksgiving Day Parade. I kind of figured it would suck, however so the first year I got super high since recreational weed is legal in our area. I vaped a bunch of cannabis oil as well as bundled up to watch floats as well as people sit around. The parade was awesome. The floats were quite elaborate as well as the performers were amazing. They have tumbling teams, dance teams as well as musicians going up as well as down the streets; You can snag food as well as gifts along the street if you want to as well. It entirely is a fun thing to do on Thanksgiving afternoon; My spouse as well as I now do it every year as well as then go to his family’s lake house for dinner.
