Boat Tour Plans!
It seems that the Architectural River Cruise put on by the Chicago Architectural Foundation is the most highly recommended boat tour (according to yelp and similar sources!). The tours are 90 minutes and cost $30 (plus a $5.75 "convenience" charge if purchased from Ticketmaster). Take a look here for more info on the tours (including where they meet), and here to buy tickets online.
I think it'd be easiest for everyone to buy their own tickets (you can buy them on-site on the day of the tour, but they might be sold out) and for us to try to agree on a time so we can go together. :) From the previous poll, it looks like Saturday or Sunday at 5:30 would be the best two options (the last tour leaves at 5:30 and they ask you to arrive about 20 mins beforehand). So, a poll:
Poll #2062 River Cruise - Sat or Sun?
Open to: All, results viewable to: All
If a group of us ends up picking one particular time, we can meet at the hotel and head over together, and maybe after the tour we can go to dinner! :D We can think about whether reservations will be needed, depending on the group size.
