Chicago

Over Memorial Day, I went to Chicago to visit a friend.   

First stop was the Chicago Art Institute.  I am not usually very impressed with an art museum, since we have the best in NYC.  But this one was amazing and we didn't get close to seeing it all.
 
 
Then we went to Millennium Park to see "The Bean."
 


 
Then there is this weird thing, that has water running down all the time, and then spews out water like this once an hour.
 
 
The next day, we went on an architecture river cruise
 

 
Then walked through the city
 
 
Here's the skyline with a tribute for Memorial Day.  

 
The last day, we went to a part of town called Andersonville. 
Complete with a Swedish flag painted on a water tower.  They also had a Swedish bakery, but it was closed when we got there. 
 

 
 
It was a fun time and I'll be back!
