We loved Chicago, and had a great time there. We took a "ganster tour" to learn about the checkered history of the city ... well we were oin holiday after all! After our tour we realised that the Roman Catholic Cathedral of The Holy Name was just along from our hotel and took a walk there to take a closer look at the bullet hole in the cornerstone. It dates from the days of Al Capone et al and is still there (top right of the photo below).
Afterwards we went inside the cathedral for a look around. Inside this unpretentious cathedral, built in the Gothic revival style we were in for an even more interesting sight. I was fascinated to see that not only was the altar / sancuary area wheelchair accessible but also they have a wheelchair accessible confessional. Brilliant!
