Is there anything new to do in Chicago at Christmas? -

I have been there for 50 years and need to know if there is anything new to see, do, etc. It just seems like its the same old thing every year and its boring. Need some new adventures.

Blues Heaven Foundation at 2120 S Michigan Ave. The site of the old Chess Studios. A small museum, but a chance to stand where the greats stood. Greats like Muddy Waters, Howling Wolf, Chuck Berry, Willie Dixon, Buddy Guy, Otis Spann, The Rolling Stones.....They all recorded there.The museum is not new, but I bet that you never been there.

Theres tons of stuff to do! You can go to Navy Pier and go to their winter festival or whatever they call it, there is ice skating in millenium park, there is the macy s windows, and the macys store itself is all decorated for christmas, you can go see the Daley Plaza christmas tree and the little Chicago Christkindlmarket that has little shops and food, you can go look at the lights on Michigan Ave, you can try to catch the holiday subway. It is a red line train that is all decked out to look like santa s train, with lots of christmas decorations and stuff, very fun.
