I went to Chicago 2 yrs ago and to Shipshewana last year. I will be driving, it is about 7 hours from here. The Millenium was full in November when I tried to book. I am staying at the Hilton Cincinnati Netherland Plaza, which I believe is next to the Millenium. I made my reservation the day I got the flier and they were full then too. I told the reservations person I just got the flier and she got permission to open I more. Bless Her. I'm counting down the days. It is my yearly retreat by myself, away from work, stress, DH and it's just 5 days of me, going to classes, shopping, resting (LOL) I can hardly wait.
