Chicago June 13
We both slept REALLY good last night, woke up to our alarm going off at 6:25 but we both went back to sleep until about 9:00. I think the massage did the trick! However we were dissapointed to look out the window to lots of rain, yuk! We didn't let that stop us though, we put on our tennis shoes and headed out to Michigan Ave to shop and sight see. You should have seen us, we looked like drowned rats running into the stores for a break from the rain. We decided to take the city bus to the field museum that was down by Soldier Stadium. Neither one of us were real excited to go to the museum but was told by many people that we should go see it so we did. You should have seen us, it was so funny!! We both looked like children being forced to do something they didn't want to do. We thought " lets just take some pictures to prove we were here and get out". I think we went through the museum in record time! By that time the rain was clearing up so we walked about a mile to the naval pier. That was really cool. There was tons of shopping and restaurants. We decided to go on a an architecture Cruise on the "Seadog". It was a huge jet boat that took us on a speed cruise first on Lake Michigan and then through the locks down Chicago River to learn about all the buildings. We came back and ate dinner on the Pier then took the trolley back to town were we walked to the Hard Rock Cafe. It was a great day, had lots of fun and laughs! Hoping for better weather tomorrow. We haven't even had shorts on yet.
