In July, we took a family vacation to Chicago. We left on a Friday evening and returned Monday afternoon. We stayed downtown near the Hancock building off Michigan Ave. Our plan involved walking quite a bit, going to Millennium Park to a family fun event, checking out a French market, meeting up with several friends, walking through the American Girl store (for my nostalgic sake) and the big reason for the trip: visit the Shedd Aquarium. Gary and I were quite excited ourselves for the Shedd, partly for ourselves and partly because we knew Eliza would love it! And she did. We spent over 5 hours at the Shedd on Sunday, and she really enjoyed it and even took a nice nap for us while we ate lunch and relaxed.
Thank you Josh & Lauren, Linnea, and Vanessa for hanging out with us! We wish we could do that more often.
I'll let pictures do the rest of the talking!
