One of my very favorite things to do  while travelling is to bar hop in fancy hotel bars. While in Chicago between Christmas and New Year’s Brenton, The Don and I went to several marvelous spots.

This is a solid wall of champagne (my drink of choice!) in the Sofitel.  We also sampled the bars at Palmer House, Waldorf, Peninsula, Public (formerly Ambassador), and Four Seasons.  We left a few for the next visit!
