Dave Erin and Roy Boy at the top of the Sears(Willis)Tower
Yes, me sitting in the window of the 103rd story of the Sears Tower now known as the Willis. Whew, you can see I am a little nervous trying hard to smile.So what can I tell ya. A great trip and adventure. We covered a lot of ground. We saw Shedd Aquarium, which incidently has more Pacific Northwest displays and sealife in it then anything.
It has a new (cheesy as Erin puts it) show with Belugas, dolphins, seals, etc showing off along with fantasy characters in it. I liked it. I loved the beluga whales. Erin and I went to the Art Institute which I loved, they have an amazing collection. Dave and I went on the Architecture boat tour, and sat front row center at the Broadway Show 'Jersey Boys'. We were more under the stage in the front row, but saw a great show at a great price. I love love love the buildings, especially the old ones. We all enjoyed the Ferris Wheel at Navy Pier, and Dave and I were there for the fantastic fireworks on Wednesday night. I really had fun roaming the city, taking pics and listening to live music at Millenium Park.
I have a hundred great pictures, and Dave says he will send more on a disc. So maybe I will embellish a new blog with them.
