Chicago Pics

Here they are for your viewing pleasure! I took over 150 pictures. Here are a handful. Enjoy.

Chicago: Driving into the city. The Sears Tower

View from the hotel: Chicago River going out into Lake Michigan

Cloud Gate AKA the Silver Bean

The Magnificent Mile Michigan Ave-if you can tell me why the street signs say "Chicago 2001" you'll earn 10 points!

Crown Fountain at Millennium Park


Yummy!
Michelle's birthday dinner. What is the blue thing in Michelle's glass you ask? On the sampler dessert we got a Cracker Jack prize-our prize: a little blue rubber fish that Michelle put in her champagne!
It was a great show!

Great pictures! Looks like you had such a great time. We love the fountain at Millenium Park - it's so much fun to watch hundred of kids (and handfuls of adults, too!) splashing in the water during the summer. All the kids figure out the cycle and either run to the sprays of water or from them, depending on how wet they want to get. :-)

How FUN! You guys look great, I love your dress! One of my favorite memories is going with my mom into the Gucci store on Michigan Avenue and buying some shoes. They cost $500 and she never even WORE them. She just wanted the experience. It was fun!
