On our first full day in Chicago we headed to the river to take an architecture cruise. We were told it was a must and they were right. It was a wonderful way to see the town and learn the history of these great buildings.
Then we headed for lunch and a walk to Millenium park to visit "the bean" which is this famous landmark/sculpture.
Griffin got to stop at Dylan's Candy Bar and he was in heaven. Three floors of candy. He chose this container to fill full and it was full!!!
Later that evening we headed to see our first Jays game vs. White Sox. The subway ride was a new experience for the kids.
Owen made us all leave really early and stand waiting at the gates for open time. We were the first in line.
This is our second summer visiting ball parks in the states with our family friends the Yeos. The kids love it! We love it too! Watching a ball game in the Skydome just doesn't do it anymore. Plus the kids get up close with the ball players and often get lots of autographs. This year they they had the system mastered a little better and was able to get autographs like Donaldson and Bautista!
Watching the game at night in this park was really special. We had a lot of fun until the Jays blew their lead in the bottom of the ninth.
Owen is showing off his Bautista autograph!
