Chicago’s Lake Shore Drive offers a trip for travelers of all ages: from its bars to its beaches, no one will ever be bored.
Lake Shore Drive spans the length of the city, reaching a total of 15 miles.
The beach-lined drive has a backdrop of tall skyscrapers, and, most notably, the Willis Tower, formerly known as the Sears Tower and once the world’s tallest building.
Travel and Leisure called the towering structures “the rock stars of American architecture.”
Along the drive, visitors can marvel at the Willis Tower, a 110-story skyscraper that stands 1,451 feet tall.
Architecture lovers can also admire the Frank Lloyd Wright-designed nineteenth-century building, The Rookery.
For some fun and games, travelers can stop at Navy Pier for carnival rides, shops, and, in the summertime, you may even catch fireworks.
Break up the trip with a stroll around Millennium Park for interactive displays at the Crown Fountain, a show at the Jay Pritzker Pavilion, and a walk along the BP Pedestrian Bridge.
In Millennium Park, visitors can also stop by the iconic Cloud Gate sculpture, also known as “The Bean.”
For a refreshing dip, stop by one of the city’s famous beaches.
Oak Street Beach is known for its lively atmosphere and Lake Michigan views, while North Avenue Beach is best for bar hopping.
North Avenue Beach is also conveniently located near the Lincoln Park Zoo, allowing families to enjoy a relaxing visit to the 35-acre zoo.
Art enthusiasts can visit The Art Institute of Chicago for captivating exhibitions and over 300,000 pieces of art.
The art institute also features its own architecture and design collection and hosts changing exhibitions throughout the year.

DALLAS Cowboys head coach Brian Schottenheimer got hit with criticism over his attire at Monday’s press conference.
One of sports media’s top personalities called out the first-year head coach.

FS1 host Colin Cowherd hasn’t been afraid to question Schottenheimer and his status with the Cowboys this offseason.
Recently, the analyst even shared the possibility of the iconic Nick Saban being a fit for the Cowboys’ head coaching.
So on Monday, Cowherd called attention to Schottenheimer’s appearance during a recent Cowboys press conference.
Schottenheimer wore a backward visor, which Cowherd slammed him for during Monday’s edition of The Herd.
“You know I don’t like backward hats,” Cowherd said alongside Jason McIntyre.
“You know what is worse? A backward visor.
“That’s a two-win team, I am taking away four wins. That’s awful, that’s so bad.”
Cowherd then addressed that fans have scolded his past and still-believed opinion that appearance matters when it comes to being one of the faces of an NFL franchise.
“I know everybody gets mad at this. I only really care… For instance, Bank of America is behind him. It’s a big sponsor.
“I do think if you are the quarterback or head coach of an organization, and you do press conferences, you are not only representing yourself.
“You are representing the Dallas Cowboys, and you are representing Bank of America. That’s probably a huge team sponsor.”
He later said during his tirade, “So when you sit in front of a podium, you are representing Bank of America. You are representing a 12 billion dollar corporation.
“… I think you have got to do better as a head coach than a visor backwards. That’s just my take.”
Schottenheimer’s the latest sports figure to be criticized by Cowherd over wearing a backwards hat.

In the past, Cowherd has ridiculed rookie Shedeur Sanders and Baker Mayfield, among others, over the same attire decision.
Nonetheless, NFL fans shared their disagreement with Cowherd’s take on Schottenheimer’s headwear at the press conference.
“Stop being ridiculous,” one wrote.
“LMAO! Man! There’s nothing wrong with the visor. He’s a coach. Normally, you have some good takes. Not this one,” a second said.

Fans also made sure to note that Cowherd hasn’t publicly ripped Washington Commanders head coach Dan Quinn for wearing backwards hats at press conferences, and that NFL legend Bill Belichick regularly wore hoodies to interview and still won six Super Bowls.
“When Dan Quinn wears backwards you never heard @colincowherd say s***,” one wrote.
“Belichick represented the Kraft family and he wore a hoodie. Harbaugh wears Walmart khakis,” a second added.

A FIRST-EVER breast milk-flavored ice cream is now available nationwide, and you can try a scoop for free.
FridaA first-ever breast milk-flavored ice cream is now available nationwide, and you can try a scoop for free[/caption]
This breast milk ice cream is the result of a partnership between Frida, a parent product company, and OddFellows, a small-batch ice cream company based in New York.
The Frida company is known for its baby, mom and fertility products.
The pair has released the limited-edition flavor nationwide, but it is not made with actual breast milk.
The ice cream is merely supposed to mimic the flavor of breast milk, and has been described by Frida in a statement.
The company described its creation as “sweet, a little salty, smooth, with hints of honey and sprinkles of colostrum, and features a distinct colostrum yellow tinge”.
In the ingredients list, also provided by Frida, the company notes some of the main ways the ice cream gets its flavour and look.
The product contains salted caramel flavoring, honey syrup and yellow food coloring.
But Frida has also revealed that the ice cream contains many of the same nutrients found in breast milk.
These include “fats (Omega-3 brain fuel!), carbs (energy-boosting lactose), important vitamins (iron, calcium, Vitamin B and D and zinc), plus lots of H2O for hydration.”
The Frida company shared that their ice cream “will be a pitch perfect representation of the sweet, creamy, nutrient packed goodness we’ve all wanted to try but have been afraid to ask.”
SOCIAL MEDIA STORM
On social media, countless people have been left shocked by the breast milk ice cream.
On Instagram, dozens of comments have expressed confusion.
One person wrote: “Wait so is this made from breastmilk??”
And another said: “Love Frida but terrible ad.
…Sweet, a little salty, smooth, with hints of honey and sprinkles of colostrum, and features a distinct colostrum yellow tinge
Frida, describing the ice cream
“Can’t tell if serious and confused if product is made from breast milk or for breast feeding moms.”
But others praised the marketing team behind the ice cream, calling for them to be given a raise for their creativity.
Another clip from Instagram shows the marketing team driving a huge silo around with “Breast Milk Ice Cream” in huge letters on the side.
An enthusiastic customer added: “As a marketing professional, your whole marketing team needs raise. This is a (liquid) gold campaign.”
While someone else chimed in: “Give the entire marketing department a huge bonus.”
WHERE CAN I FIND IT?
The breast milk ice cream is available, while supplies last, on the Frida website.
The product will also be available at a pop-up event at OddFellows location in Dumbo, Brooklyn, New York.
This is happening from August 5 through August 10.
Free scoops of the flavor will be offered between noon and 1 p.m. local time on Wednesday, August 6 and Sunday, August 10.

TOM BRADY was not the only member of the family celebrating a birthday over the weekend.
The seven-time Super Bowl champion turned 48 on Sunday.

He commemorated the occasion by taking to Instagram.
Brady shared a story of himself alongside a number of his family members.
And one of them included his lookalike sister, Julie.
The NFL legend shares a birthday with his sister, who is three years older than him.
His heartfelt post saw him posing alongside Julie and his three children.
He captioned his post: “And a big Happy Birthday to the greatest sister and aunt in the world.
“Thanks for being our biggest fans and always looking out for us.
“We love you so much!!!!!”
Many have joked that the pair could be identical twins.
This is because they share the same beaming smile, have a similar facial structure and even have the same Miami tan.
Brady smiled alongside Julie and sons Jack, 17, Benjamin, 15 and daughter Vivian, 12.
He shares Jack with ex-girlfriend, Bridget Moynahan, while he co-parents Benjamin and Vivian with his former wife, Gisele Bundchen.
Brady is heading into his second season as Fox’s leading NFL analyst.
Last week he was seen in the reveal trailer for a documentary detailing his time as a co-owner of English football club, Birmingham City.
Built in Birmingham: Brady & the Blues is a five-part series being dropped on Amazon Prime that charts the NFL legend’s part-ownership of the club during the last two seasons.
The series goes on to chart their incredible season last time around which saw them win League One with anEFL-record 111 pointsunder new boss Chris Davies.
But Brady conceded it was a mistake to replace previous boss John Eustace with Rooney within weeks of taking over in August 2023.
The NFL star, who had a 22-year career with New England Patriots and Tampa Bay Buccaneers, said: “I had good advice, ‘Don’t go in there and make sweeping changes. You guys have time.’
“But we made sweeping changes that put us in decline. That was our doing.”
