How long should a international letter take?|144848

I am using airmail for my letter from australia to U.S.A and it has not arrived. I sent it on the 21 december

I would give at least three weeks. If it does not show up in six it is either gone for good or it was sent to the wrong country and could be another month.

Where can I find discounted passes to Chicago attractions, other than Citypass?|116868

We live in the far north suburbs of Chicago, and I_d like to take my family to Chicago about once a week this summer to the Field Museum, Shedd Aquarium, etc. I_d get a Citypass but it expires within a week or so after you buy it. Is there anything similar to Citypass, that gives you discounted admission to each attraction once, but expires a couple months later?

If you have a Chicago library card you can check out a Kraft Museum Passport for free. Call ahead to see which ones they have (although they can_t hold them for you). It_s kind of a crapshoot.

The other option is GoChicagoCard, but that doesn_t really work for your situation either. With that one, you purchase the number of days you want to use it for (1, 2, 3, 5, or 7) and can get into many more attractions for free, but the days have to be used consecutively.

So, the short answer is no. But, Adler and Shedd are free the week of June 17 - 22, and the Field has discounted admission. The Art Institute is free on Thursday evenings year round, as is the Chicago Children_s Museum. The Peggy Notebaert Nature Museum is free on Thursdays, and it_s by the free Lincoln Park Zoo.

The Chicago Cultural Center is always free, as is the City Museum in Water Tower.

Most Chicago attractions have a free day. I know the two musuems you mention do. The art institute also offers free admission one day a week.

Check the websites for the museums, it should be mentioned there.

I don_t really know if it is going to be right for you but there is a new pass out there called Explorer Pass. It could be right up your alley. Looks like they are about to launch a card in Chicago. Seems to be good for 30 days. However, I just looked at their website and they are not selling yet, at least in Chicago. You might check back in a week to see what is included. http://www.explorerpass.com/chicago/index.html
