In the afternoon I joined the Chicago Architecture Foundation’s First Lady Architectural tour of the river. From the first skyscapers in the 1920s with gothic forms, to the modern and postmodern – this is a fabulous city – with river walks, and the marinas on Lake Michigan. I could not resist a bike ride along the lakeshore, and found a bicycle hire place near the Millennium Park. The city has done a lot to open up the lakeshore to bikes and walkers, and it is a joy to ride around, keeping to the right of course!
