08-16-10


So many photos to choose from today! Us riding bikes, the cool gorillas at the zoo, ferris wheel fun, awesome photos from the Stained Glass Museum, goofing off pretending to window wash skyscrapers, huge upscale dinner at Ditkas, cool old refrigerators decorated along Michigan Ave.

I decided this photo, even though it doesn’t have any Fischers in it, represents our day. We rented bikes at Navy Pier and followed this lake Michigan trail to the free zoo. It was a great ride, we all enjoyed it. After eating (Chicago dogs today), river cruising, and ferris wheeling we left Navy Pier and walked to the John Hancock building. We enjoyed this observatory more than Sears Tower, with the free audio tour, windowless section, the wonderful coffee bar with plenty of seating, the fun free photo opportunities, and the more interesting views.

We had to give up on one Chicago must do (the Popcorn palace store is no longer at navy Pier), but got “bike rental” crossed off, and feel liked we’ve seen another big section fo this great city.
