Chicago is a magical city any time of year, but during the holidays it really comes to life! Colleen Kelly joins families on a fun-filled tour of Chicago, celebrating winter traditions around the city starting with the Christmas Around the World tree display at the Museum of Science and Industry. The holiday magic continues with a high tea, a visit to the Christkindl Market and a tour of the holiday-decorated Thorne Miniature Rooms at The Art Institute. To round out the vacation in Chicago, Colleen and a family explore the wonders of the Field Museum and the incredible displays of fossils and dinosaur bones, including SUE the T. Rex. She also takes viewers to a unique spice shop in the Old Town neighborhood where visitors can buy spices for their holiday recipes and even as souvenirs! The trip ends with a visit to the top of the John Hancock Building where Colleen and a family brave the high in the sky sites overlooking the city at 360 Chicago and The Tilt experience. With so much to do even during the wintertime, Chicago is a wonderful family vacation getaway during the holidays.
