Heathrow to Chicago

Our flight was due to leave at 10 50 so we had time for a breakfast at our hotel before getting the bus to terminal 5.


We left from the C building so needed to use the underground shuttle which we had never been on.

Flight left a little late but we were only in the air for just under 8 hours so arrived ahead of schedule. It took ages to find our stand and as we were at the back of the plane ages to get off!

Easy through immigration, picked up our bags and took the inter terminal shuttle


 to get the CTA Metro to downtown Chicago and our hotel.

Check in and very pleased with our room on the 19th floor.
Hampton Majestic Chicago Theatre District Hotel!


Time to go off to Macys to buy a coat for IB and have a bite to eat in the store.We also visited their tourist information desk and stocked up with maps and leaflets to study! Our first impressions are good with a much cleaner and better 'finished' look than New York.

A look at US TV while we try to stay awake until a sensible time to crash out!
