Three years ago I moved from Chicago after living there for 30 years. THANKS for the walk down memory lane. And yes, the Sears Tower will always be known as the Sears Tower.
Secondly, that was good You guys went walking in Millennium Park to see the Bean!!! Yes, it is nice to do that and take a picture. Will today Wednesday it is 19 degrees listed here on the local channel 9 News but not any snow right. The news weather host today said we my get snow here later on tonight. The was really nice you guys took the Blue Line train into the city from O'Hare Airport. I always get off at Jefferson Park stop. And then I would take two buses back east and then north to Rogers Park near the Loyola University area. I see you guys got off at the Damen stop.
Welcome to Chicago. The Roby is very nice. You are literally 1 mile from a good friend of mine. Get to the West Loop and see all the great new restaurants there. And John, yes. It will always be The Sears Tower.
I've never seen or heard Francesco so excited! John was really excited to show us around too, you could see it in his eyes. I love Chicago, such a fun city with so much to enjoy. The gloves vs camera/phone struggle is very real. 🤣 Can't wait to see the rest of the trip!
This is a great video since I moved to Florida from Chicago and yes the Sears tower will always be that. The food is awesome there can't wait to see where else you take us.
Yes, living I Chicago in the cold winter seasons is crazy sometimes but it makes Chicago citizens strong in our heart. Many times when I would have a trip to Florida in the winter now you can understand why I do love the warm weather in Florida. Hahaaha!! Yes, I was born here and gave grown up here and New York. So, I have seen the snow in both of these big cities. Well, enjoy being here in Chicago. Our Channel News 9 which was born here in Chicago and Channel 11 PBS stations are our really at the heart of our city. So, enjoy being here in the cold. But it is nice to come here in the summer to see the city with all the museums and sights.
Great video guys, love Chicago and I gotta tell you from your window view there, Miami's skyline is catching up with the windy City. Happy New Year everyone!!!!
I love your vlog, my hubby is from Chicago, I like to see your videos about travel , because I am scared to fly 😞.. But your videos give me hope to take an airplane ✈️☺️☺️
Hi guys!! Very nice. I don't know about Chicago. It's inland and for me I gotta be near water☺. If had a choice though I'd reside near their water front. And what about the Chicago deep dish pizza😃😃? Very very nice guys. Please keep coming out with more vlogs!!
Thanks for sharing this video! I haven't been in Chicago in many years. I went once on a 1-day trip with a coworker and his wife. We went for lunch and early afternoon theater. We had a great time! Then, I returned 2 more times for other events. Always had a wonderful time. Wish you guys have a wonderful time! Stay warm and safe. Hugs from Atlanta, GA.
Cool videos Francisco!! Looks like you guys had a awesome time in Chicago!! Me and my wife!! Well my wife is from Chicago by the way!!! Tell John hello!!! Anyway enjoy your time there!! You guys are awesome 😎 be safe!!
Hahaha!! Good you two made it here to Chicago!! That was good you guys made it downtown and that you were walking across the Michigan Ave I the Loop area. If you and John would have started to walk north on Michigan Ave you would have crossed the Michigan Ave bridge passing by the beautiful Wrigley Building to become the One Magnificent Mile walk. Yes, would have taken pass all the shopping stores there.
I have yet to travel to Chicago so I'm excited to see you and John do up the town, Francesco! Loved you both reading the Chinese Zodiac symbols - so funny! Thanks for sharing!
I wish I knew you guys were coming to my home. I didn't realize a hotel was in that corner, and I grew up in that area. Humboldt Park is my home. John is my brother from another mother, especially since we are Puerto Ricans. I hope you went by there to get some PR food. I love seeing my home being viewed by the outsider, Francesco. John was a great host in his hometown. I love that you guys came during the cold, snowy time in Chicago.
Just got back from our California trip ....didn't see you or my other flight attendant TH-camrs in any of the airports..😪... maybe someday ...i love Chicago we go visit like every 6 months or so ...glad to see you guys had fun 😊
Great first day in Chicago Francesco I loved how you were getting so exciting with the winter weather. I loved the hotel and you and John were enjoying the day, plus you flew first class yayyy. You know the famous line...Paris First Class International lol.
I miss Chicago! I've been a few times and was last there for a weekend in 2019. Definitely need to go back for probably about a week the next time I can make it out there.
+That was a nice blog, thanks for posting, and enjoy Chicago. I've flown thru there on United many times so am familiar with that terminal which I think is pretty swank.
Hi guys 🙋♀️ great video! yes, it does look cold there..but its cold here in Missouri too...I'm ready for spring!! 😁 enjoy chicago & don't forget to have a chicago style hotdog while ur there 🤗
Omg, you were born the year right before my airline career started…lol. Thanks Francesco for making me feel old. Just messing, the video was great as always :-). No seats to buy on AA? It’s to the point where I buy tkts as well, non-reving is a nightmare anymore.
Loving this vlog. I love Chicago. It’s been a long time since I’ve been there though. I can’t wait to see what else you do. It’s cool that it’s so easy to get around on the trains.
Loving this video! My ORD relatives say great things about their Chinatown. Fyi Tous Les Jours is Korean chain that is French inspired. We have one in SEA Chinatown. They are also in all our H-Marts.
Just as I predicted in my comment to your last video... The Robey! My son and I spent an afternoon at its rooftop pool. It was so refreshing on a very hot summer day. Did you notice that it is one of at least 3 flatiron buildings at that big crazy intersection? The Walgreens is another and there's yet another across the street. How well I know the Blue Line... Have stood on that Damen platform many, many times (in both sweltering heat and frigid cold) to catch trains into the Loop or to ORD. My son lives equidistant from the Damen and Division stations, so I use both stations. Depends on what shops I want to pass or errands I need to run along the way, or whether a bus in that direction is about to arrive if I'm feeling lazy (as I always load my personal Ventra train/bus card with a 7-day pass when I go). Looking forward to seeing the rest of the trip.
Living in Toronto I find face masks are great for keeping my nose warm. I also have winter jeans, outer denim, then fiber fill, the flannel which keep me warm.
Welcome to Chicago! Totally cool I just found your channel and the first video is of my city! Got to check out the rest of your Chicago vlogs. Hope you had a freezing time here!
Hi guys! Thanks for taken us along on your trip to Chicago! Love the city! Also, love the hotel. I’ve never heard of it but may be staying there the next time I’m in Chicago. Looks really nice!
Hello you lovelies . Question to Francesco Do you need a second or third language on AMERICAN When you fly to Europe ? Air France requires French ,English and fluency in a third one helpful in the choice of destination ... Please enjoy life as you are you are a pleasure to watch.
It's been awhile since I've visited your vlog due to I'll health and a hospital stay. I'm not out of the woods yet but, you an Jon on this Chicago trip has brought my spirits and I love you guys so much and thank you for sharing your trip and look forward for more. With Respect Always Be Well and Be Safe... Richard 😎
Your vlogs have kept me super entertained during & after the Holidays. So glad you are vloggin' ~Welcome to Chi Francesco & Welcome back John🎉 I feel like Francesco, as I most desire a tranquil lifestyle. I've lived in the city all my life & I just can't wait to finally be able to move to Suburban town - and that could be anywhere in the states; well soon as I get an opportunity I will do so👍🏼It's great to see the perception & excitement of this city from someone else's eye. Enjoyed watching this- look forward to the next ones 🤗 I hope you both had a wonderful time ~New memories are to be made in 2022🙌🏼 Se me cuidan mucho💕🙏
"Stole My Heart...!"😍Awe...😁
Awww 🥺 this is by far one of the cutest videos 🥰 when John said “you stole my heart”
Three years ago I moved from Chicago after living there for 30 years. THANKS for the walk down memory lane. And yes, the Sears Tower will always be known as the Sears Tower.

That was a nice first class service! Thanks for the ORD tour! I’ve never been there!

Chicago is my favourite city in the States💚💜💚
I've never seen or heard Francesco so excited! John was really excited to show us around too, you could see it in his eyes. I love Chicago, such a fun city with so much to enjoy. The gloves vs camera/phone struggle is very real. 🤣 Can't wait to see the rest of the trip!
I love vlogs with you and John traveling.
Wonderful to see Chicago from johns view. Great vlog and thanks for making us feel like we are on vacation with y’all.
You should get some heat tech from Uniqlo. They're super thin but keeps you warm.
Love the vlog! Makes me miss visiting Chicago.
I hope you guys have a fantastic trip to Chi-Town. 😊👌
Love Chi-town! ... but only in the spring and summer. 👍🤗💞
This is a great video since I moved to Florida from Chicago and yes the Sears tower will always be that. The food is awesome there can't wait to see where else you take us.
Just a great blog, made my evening. Looking forward to the next one.
Timely video! I will be taking my first trip to Chicago in April. Can't wait see more through your and John's eyes.

Hey Franceso, enjoyed watching this vlog!
Great video Francesco and John. I have never been there and are enjoying touring around with you both. Cant wait for the next one. Stay warm and safe.
I lived in Chicago for 8 years after college. It was so vibrant.
Sweet hotel, thanks for the tour!
I was flown to Chicago once for
a job interview in Jan and nearly froze to death. I'm from the south.
I did get the work and worked back in the south.
Smart and lucky.
You both have an amazing trip in Chicago. Thank you for sharing. 2022.
Have a great time guys 👍

Next time, stay at the Hawthorne in Boys Town. Depending on where you are at, you can get an awesome view of the lake!

Nice video! Oh man I hope I get to experience 1st class travel one day :D. The seats look sooo comfy

Really enjoying seeing Chicago. We woke up to a foot of snow in Toronto this morning. I hope you got some in Chicago too. It is beautiful.
We did get snow! I was so excited about it lol
I miss Chicago! I've been a few times and was last there for a weekend in 2019. Definitely need to go back for probably about a week the next time I can make it out there.

Fabulous vid. So lovely.
Great vlog in the Windy City 🌃 and who else wouldn’t want a gin and tonic at 8am in the morning. lmao
I love my gin and tonics at all hours of the day lol. But only whilst on vacation, of course :)
I’m from Chicago it’s so fun seeing you guys here! Have fun!
TSA...precheck is the best......I got it for my daughter as a Christmas gift....
Great to see you guys enjoying the North- it's a different vibe from South Florida, but that is what makes it fun to see you guys have fun visiting.
Love taking the train into Chi town!
Don't go out for Subway at 2am...LOL love you guy's have fun and enjoy the Windy City!!!
+That was a nice blog, thanks for posting, and enjoy Chicago. I've flown thru there on United many times so am familiar with that terminal which I think is pretty swank.

Love you both 🇨🇦🌨️

Really loved the vlog! Chicago seems like a great place and the hotel room looked so nice😍
"I love united, they have the best service" - quote from an AA crew🤣
Chicago is a wonderful place to be FROM. I am from Chicago.
My old stomping grounds, I used to live by the California stop, now I’m a suburbanite, but my office is downtown
I will never judge anyone for having a nice beverage at the beginning of a trip, no matter the time! Cheers 🥂
Hello you lovelies . Question to Francesco
Do you need a second or third language on AMERICAN When you fly to Europe ? Air France requires French ,English and fluency in a third one helpful in the choice of destination ...
Please enjoy life as you are you are a pleasure to watch.
