John Hancock Tower

After having this amazing view of Chicago from the Sears Tower I went for an evening drink to the Hancock Tower which is 'only' 60 floors high but because of it's architecture with the external steal skeleton it is at least as popular as the Sears tower. And it has one big advantage over the Sears tower...

... it has a bar on the top floor! And what was the drink of my choice? Of course the only Irish whiskey they had up there... a good Old Bushmills. And at the same time it was my most expensive drink so far... $12? I can buy a whole bottle of it in the liqueur store next door ;-)





But to be honest it was totally worth it! As the tourist guide already said, the best view of the Chicago skyline you get from the John Hancock building, and he was right. Especially at night this view of Chicago is just astonishing.
