Chicago Bucket List



As most of you know, Raj and I are leaving Chicago for California. It is bittersweet. I will always miss family and friends here...it has been my home and always will be. But it is a chance to get closer to more family and friends and it is California. Lots to look forward to! But in that leaving, we've created a bucket list of things we want to do before we leave. Who is in? We'll let you know when we are doing what and I am going to post and update when we do something on this post. The things in bold have been completed.

The list:
1) Kayak in the Chicago River - awesome Saturday morning w/ Karishma Desai :) Pictures below
2) Need to make a trip to U of I -Awesome, awesome, awesome...think I'm going to write a separate post about that one
3) Beach Volleyball - happened June 16th! awesome group...good times but so hot!
4) Shawnee National Forest - may happen with U of I - not happening - too far
5) Garfield Conservatory  - went with Raj...so pretty!!
6) Bike ride the bike trail to the Chicago Botanical Gardens on the North Branch Trail - Happened on 6/21 with raj - the full 30 miles! One fine day also happened w/ Sonz but we were silly and didn't realize the Botanical Gardens was across the street from where we thought we got lost.
7) Late night bike ride - Farah, Taham, Arpit, Shraddha, Bhavna, Sheel, Almae, Farah's family...great group and so fun! Had some mishaps with the bike and a little crowded but still worth it once.
8) Family picnic - the classic w/ the Sehgal's and Puri's - usually Bhav and Shilpa tag along
9) Movie night at Grant Park - We watched Hugo at Harold Washington Park...so fun!
10) Bike to Naperville - this is an ongoing joke but we'll see if I can make it happen
