Being my first real conference in Chicago, I decided to scout out the city and took the Chicago architecture tour and rode the L & Metra trains around the city to different neighborhoods.

In preparation for Charlotte’s World Usability Day, the annual Usability Professionals Association event, I grabbed a few extra transport maps and snapped a few pictures of transportation nightmares. Like this one:
