Saw the Sears Tower, which is the tallest building in the US. Forgot to take a picture.

Took a glance at the Chinatown:

With the help of Ye, we visited the famous Fermi Lab, which is the No. 1 high energy physics lab in the world.

Had the well-known deep-dish pizza as dinner. Best pizza ever! /em25/

Chicago's Union Station, is the most beautiful train station I've ever seen:

        想不到Chicago是如此漂亮的城市!它有如此漂亮的建筑,既古典庄重,又豪华气派!
    不枉Michigan此行!
    在我的记忆中,这里的宣传说Chicago是世界上犯罪最严重的地方,犯罪分子的天堂,穷人的地狱。我不可能去考证,既然这么说我就这么信了。现在我想,犯罪最严重的地方一定是混乱极了,怎么会如此整齐有序?怎么可能建造出这么多如此豪华气派的建筑?
    还是眼见为实啊!

其实美国人也都说Chicago犯罪严重。地铁里很多黑人。室友说每次在Chicago坐地铁都胆战心惊,他也提醒我坐车坐地铁的时候钱包手机相机要看好。就在第一张照片那个地铁站,就有一个黑人到处问人兑散钱,大多数人都不理他。室友说那是骗子,他假装问你有没有5张$1,你以为他要用1张$5跟你换,其实你一拿出5张$1,他就拿走,然后并不会给你$5。马路大街上也有不少乞讨的黑人,估计也有不少行骗的花招。其实洛杉矶、旧金山也如此,估计美国大城市都这样。我反正遇到了就装作不懂英文加快脚步走了。

在Chicago原本打算坐火车去Michigan,结果提前几天票就卖光了。中国有春运,美国也有冬运。还好汽车票没卖光,就坐长途汽车。Chicago那个长途汽车站,跟中国的一样脏乱差。

        看来,能进入你镜头的都是Chicago的标签地方,赃乱差的地方给免了。我跟着你的镜头当了一回“中国卫生检查团”,看了几个最干净的地方,就给该城市封上“全国卫生城市”。不过,真正的中国卫生检查团是还要狠狠地搓几顿劲的!
        犯罪是每处都有的,我就在自由神像下面看到一个警察押走一个女扒手,还拷上手拷的。自由神像那地方,全世界的游客都有,可能较容易下手扒钱。不过,能到那地方去旅游的人都较“醒目”,而且,那种地方往往警察比游客多,居然还抓得到扒手,真能说明问题!
        “天下黑人一般黑。”在我们这里的黑炭头,最擅长真币变假币、美金变成秘鲁币等魔术。而且,黑炭头的腿部肌肉超发达,在刘翔出道之前,均没人跑得过他们,所以,一旦被你发现他出“蛊惑”,他会拔腿而去,你是“吹唔胀”的。所以,交朋友也好、做生意也好,要避免“涉黑”。
