1) How expensive are the cabs there. Do they charge by the mile?

2) I know there is a Macy's down there... Is it located inside a mall or is it by itself? Also, does it have a good selection of dresses there?

3) Are the Shedd Aquarium and Field Museum Fun?

4) Which is better... Millenium Park or Grant Park?|||1. YES!!! don't take a cab why not take Chicago's famous "el" train. You can buy day pass and its a whole lot cheaper then taking a cab.

2. Macy's is a building of it's own it's the old Marshall Fields building on Randolph and State.

3. Im not really into the Shedd Aquarium but it's cute. My favorites are the Museum of Science and Industry, The Art Institute and the Field Museum

4. If you can see both you should! Grant Park has Buckingham Fountain and other cool knick knacks. Millenium Park is new and modern and it has "The Bean". But if I could only choose one then it would be Millenium Park.

Another thing, you have to check out the Sears Tower and the ethnic neighborhoods!|||1) The last time I was in a cab they charged by the minute, not the mile. So if you're stuck in traffic, cha-ching.

2) There are two Macy's - the main one is in the former Marshall Field's Building at State and Adams/Washington. The other is at Water Tower Place on North Michigan.

3) Shedd and Field are both fun. Field you learn more about history and the world - Shedd is great to see aquatic life.

4) Millennium Park everyone should see, great people watching places are the bean and the Crown Fountain. Grant Park you'll get glimpses from all over. Millennium technically seems like part of Grant Park.

As for pizza Connie's is the best, Gino's East is the legend, Uno's is the original. Lou Malnati's is pretty good too. Giordano's is okay but not one of my favorites.|||1. Yes, cabs are expensive. Fees are about $4 just to get in the cab and then there is a fee for additional passengers and the meter goes up quickly. They are wonderful things to have, though, when you need them! Check out the CTA schedules. You may have to wait a bit, but the fare is more affordable.

2. Macy's is the original Marshall Field building at Randolph and State Streets..and yes, they have a good selection of everything! lol

3. Yes the Shedd Aquarium and the Field Museum are a lot of fun, but so is the Museum of Science and Industry, The Art Institurte and all of the Museums in Chicago.

4. Millenium Park is new and exciting...a must see.
Grant park is full of charm and history...a must see.
tee hee

I hope that I have helped, and in my opinion, you MUST have Chicago style pizza if you are visiting. My personal favorite is Girodanos..but they are all good. Enjoy your visit!!|||-I'm guessing you're coming in from the suburbs. A cab from Union station to State & Randolph (Macy's) will be about $10. Or a little further to Water Tower Place will be about $15. Please don't undertip, with fuel prices cab drivers are having a tough time.

-There are 2 macy's downtown, water tower and state street. They have all kinds of dresses.

-I prefer the Field Museum but the Shedd Aquarium is nice too.

- Millenium Park is at the north end of Grant Park. It has more to see with that bean and all.|||I love the Shedd and the Field. many things to do at both. go on their web sites to check it out.
