Visitors from around the world came out to see The Museum of Ice Cream in Chicago. A pair of friends were celebrating their birthday while one of them was visiting her family in Chicago. June (not her real name) hailed from Korea and wanted to soak up everything Chicago had to offer. What better way to beat the heat and keep up with the adventurous spirit. June and her friend enjoyed their time at the museum and June hopes to come back with her grandson, undoubtedly her grandson will surely enjoy his time at the museum.

The Museum of Ice Cream was a sundae blast, a cherry on top to end the day. The staff at the museum were friendly and sweet people, making the visit enjoyable. I hope you don’t mind ice cream on the menu for breakfast, lunch, and dinner. Because a balanced diet is an ice cream in each hand, truly what sweet dreams are made out of.
