Chicago 2

We had no idea that Chicago was such an interesting place, though after having spent all day walking around we were very glad to sit down somewhere warm!

We walked over to the lake and discovered Navy Pier, which is huge and has among other things a fun park, a Shakespeare theater (when in Rome...), and multiple food places selling such delicacies as funnel cake, elephant ears and other unknown foods.

The walk follows the lake for miles and I think we walked a few of them. We found the spectacular Buckingham fountain, only to find that it doesn't start spurting till May!


We found Millenium Park, and some amazing sights. Graham filmed this fountain spurting water, but missed the face finishing and turning into a smile.


The thing they call the bean is quite interesting, that's me with my hand on it, and the cityscape reflected in the bean.


The reflections underneath are pretty interesting too.

The day warmed up for a couple of hours while we had lunch, but it cooled down fast, and we were glad to find a warm bar for a drink before heading for the train.
