We started at Friday midday to Chicago and stayed in Holiday Inn for two nights. We arrived at Friday evening, so we just went to a club called ‘Soundbar’ after we checked in. It was a cool club. At Saturday we did sight seeing. We went on top of the Sears Tower (currently, the Sears Tower is the tallest skyscraper in the United States) the Buckingham Fountain (you will know this from Al Bundy), the Navy Pier and the Millenium Park. At Sunday morning we ate a great pizza in Little Italy, before we drove back home. It was a short but awesome trip.<o:p></o:p></span></p><p class="MsoNormal" style="margin-bottom:0cm;margin-bottom:.0001pt;text-align: justify;mso-pagination:none;mso-layout-grid-align:none;text-autospace:none"><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family:'Lucida Grande';color:#333333;"><span class="Apple-style-span" style="color: rgb(0, 0, 0);

Because we needed some food and other stuff for our new home we went to WallMart for shopping the whole afternoon. At the evening we invited all the Germans and some Americans to our apartment. It was really great and we did party all night long. This was a really awesome first day in our new home and now everybody knows, where the party-apartment in Campus Village is!</span></o:p></span></p><p class="MsoNormal" align="center" style="text-align: left;margin-bottom: 0.0001pt;

In the first half the atmosphere in the hall was not so good but at the end the Garden transformed into a boiling pot!</span></div><div><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-size:medium;">Unfortunately the Clippers won the game 140:135 but we had fun anyway.

After a little shopping tour and a trip to Staten Island we went out in the evening with some other guys from out hostel. Unfortunately we lost Nico & Manu in the subway. We didn't catch find them so we decide to do the club trip without them. First we start with a little bar called Continental. Special offer this day was 5 shots/ 10$ what is really cheap for New York. Normally you have to pay for one beer 7 to 9$. So you see it was a good place to start the evening. After the bar we went to a club called webster hall. This club was crazy. On the main floor the crowd was dancing like in a MTV Hip Hop clip. So we had a lot of fun this evening.
