Back from Chicago
I had a great time, I've never been to Chicago before.
Brief list of the happenings:
-saw Wicked at the Ford Theatre. What an amazing musical! My tear ducts were full for most of the second act. I haven't seen a musical since I saw "The Lion King" quite a few years ago, and I'd forgotten how magical they can be. I highly recommend that you go see the show. It was Wicked.
-ran down a busy downtown-Chicago sidewalk with 45 other people in an attempt to catch a the tour boat. It was nuts. (We made the tour incidentally).
-went up the John Hancock Observatory Tower
-accidentally locked myself in a bathroom
-saw a set and a half of a blues concert. I now love the blues.
-went to the Oceanarium and Aquarium (name?) as well as the Museum of Science and Industry. Both very cool places...The museum is ginormous! A Boeing-747 Jet, an actual submarine (HUGE), helicopter, coal mine exhibit!...it was crazy! My favourite was the bubble room however. Quite fun.

That's about it for now. Enjoy the pics, and have a good one!

yes, Chicago is a great city. I wouldn't mind living there myself.
Nice pictures, Robyn. Glad you had a good time!

Ah, I figured it must have been a song line.
It was fun. The only thing that really scared me was the mass crossing of streets and drivers honking at pedestrians to move when the walkers had the right of way.
