Chicago

Our last day on our journey to the north was spent in Chicago.  After four days of visiting family, we ended our trip visiting the city.  The weather was unseasonably nice.  It was about 35 degrees out which is much nicer than the usual 20-30 with gusting winds.

Sara wanted to visit 'The Bean' so this was our first stop.  We parked at Millennium Park and walked around checking out the Jay Pritzker Pavilion, The Bean, McCormick Ice Rink, and the Crown Fountain.

From Millennium Park, we walked around Michigan Ave, State Street, and by the river...

Then time for pizza at Pisanos...

After walking around a little more and doing some 'shopping', we ended the day at the Lurie Garden...

I know I have said it many times before but I need to get back to Chicago during the summer.  It is much more pleasant outside and the Cubs are playing. Two great reasons to go.  This year will be the year.
