In Chicago there is a place that reminds me of somewhere I grew up and had lots of fun. That place is Navy Pier, an amusement park located on Lake Michigan, right next to Downtown Chicago. The place I had fun at growing up was Clacton Pier, another amusement park, that I spent many hours as a kid riding the rides and playing the arcade games. I remember going there in the summertime by train with my grandmother. She used to buy the ride tickets for me and my sister and let us ride in the bumper cars or on the big wheel. I did not get to see much of Navy Pier as we were there late, but one day when I go back to Chicago (preferably when it's warmer) I will go and spend some time there and remember those childhood Sundays of fun.
