Mike Kara Presents.... Christmas - Downtown Chicago - 2009

Well, for me Christmastime is truly not Christmastime unless I make a trip to Downtown Chicago. Chicago, Illinois is the third largest city in America and when it comes to Christmas Spirit seems to me, to be #1. As a wee lad, I grew up with the expectation and anticipation of each visiting downtown Chicago. Chicago was changed quite a bit since 1983, but the spirit of the city and spirit of Christmas can be found here even today in 2009. Some Holiday Hotspots I gotta tell you about include, first The Kris Kringle Market in Daley Plaza. I mean man what a Christmas celebration they got going on in that place. Such a wide variety of food, beer, Christmas ornaments anything and everything to truly make your downtown Chicago Christmas visit a winner. Also while downtown, there is nothing like a good trip to the theatre. The Goodman Theatre during December features special performances of that Charles Dickens beloved Christmas Classic - A Christmas Carol.

On to a little window shopping shall we. Of course Macys is a place for all your Holiday and gift giving needs but each and every single solitary year features special Christmas Windows with animated characters. Kiddies really get a kick out of this one.

Also at Millennium Park, you can skate the day away. Nothing like a ice skating to get your Christmas groove on. Skaters good and bad young and old just love to skate and skate on a chilly willy Sunday afternoon.

Also lets take a look at some of the downtown Chicago during December, some scences featuring some nice Holiday lights and decorations, some not so much, rather just some awesome video from that awesome city that same old place, sweet home Chicago.

And to end this sucker off, We return to Macys on State Street, and admire some beautiful scenes of The Super Duper Holiday Christmas Tree inside the Walnut Room.

Merrrrrry Christmas to you. Chicago rules, and around Christmas it cant be beat.
