Kelsey Goes to Chicago

 A Journey Girl's Trip to Chicago

The Journey Girls love to explore and experience new adventures as they travel.  Kelsey took her first trip to the Windy City.  She is so excited to go on a trip.  She starts packing days in advance.  

"What should I bring?" she thinks.  "Probably plenty of warm things….it is after all winter,"

 She packs some sweaters, jeans, pants, some warm tights, and a skirt (optimistic that there might be some warmer weather).  Everything fits snugly into her suitcase.  She even has extra room in her suitcase for some new things she hopes to buy on the Miracle Mile.

Once she has everything packed, Kelsey takes her suitcase downstairs. waves good-bye, and heads out to the car for the six hour trip to Chicago.

All strapped in for the ride.  Kelsey loves road trips.  She loves seeing all of the scenery.  It's beautiful seeing all the trees, rock faces, and even the farm land is amazing to see.  She plays on her iPhone and texts Meredith to see what she's up to.

Eventually, Kelsey makes it to the hotel.  She unpacks her suitcase and settles in for the evening.  She is so excited to go see the sites of the city.  She wants to walk the Miracle Mile, see the shops, and hopefully find some neat things in the shops.  Then maybe go to Millennium Park…see the bean, the sculptures, the gardens, and just walk around the park.  If the weather is okay Kelsey thinks she may even stop by Navy Pier.  Tonight, she has to sleep….and that seems like a really good idea.  Kelsey yawns, puts her head down, and falls asleep.
