We're 22 if that helps.
:) Thanks!|||The Art Institute has one of the largest collections of Impressionism in North America as well as an incredible medieval armor collection. It has a world class art collection. Don't miss it.

Architecture river boat tour
This is the best way to tour the city. It's a 90 minute cruise in the heart of the city and describes the history of 50 landmark buildings and the city.

Harry Caray's|||You've got a good list there. But I'd try to get away from the tourist areas for a while and show him ALL of the city, maybe take a train ride up to Evanston, go hang out in Andersonville, maybe Wicker Park (I personally don't like it but, hey..), the Garfield Park Observatory, Museum of Science and Industry, and a game at Sox Park.|||You have a great list already. You'll need to pare it way down, of course. Try to do a blend of things that would be really unique and new to him along with some things you know that he already likes. Be sure you include some quiet time for the two of you to just talk and be together instead of just rushing to the next place to see. btw, he might enjoy Chinatown--I always have fun there. Good luck!! : P|||This is a great list. Make sure to walk on the Lake Front path, it's one of my favorite things to do!
And I'm glad you included pizza on this.|||Thats a good list you got there.

You could start there and take the water taxi back to Michigan Ave and see the sights, walk to Navy Pier, as that is the last weekend of fireworks!
