I don’t really love Chicago. I went there last weekend for a concert and spent about 72H there. BUT you have to know you must be ready to wait in line to enter restaurants and shops. Long lines. The streets are dirty, and filled with homelessness and mental health issues. I saw many homeless persons with their kids sitting on the streets. I still have some recommandations if you still want to go.

Where to get the best meals, rent a car, find the coolest attractions, and most importantly, where to stay in Oahu! This is one of the best trips we took as a family, and we almost went again this year. The kids mostly enjoyed the beach, surfing, and all the amazing food!

We did find a small Hawaiian show at the mall to enjoy, though.
