Last day in chicago

The day before we left Chicago we had some friends give me and the girls a a tour of downtown chicago. They are my neighbors in arizona, but are snowbirds, so they live here for for the summer. it was so nice of them to come pick us up and take us down there. her husband dropped us off righ at navy pier. it was a beautiful day, kinda hot but really nice!
This is us in navey peir, its a huge famous pier with a ferris wheel, bear gardens, and a bunch of good food!

were standing in front of a pirate ship. i waved at it and it shot a fake cannon at me, it scared the crap out of me.

then we at lunch at bubba gumps. it was really good. i had a shrimp po boy!

Skylar and i went on the huge ferris wheel by are selves. taylor was of course to scared to go, so she stayed down with Mae and went on a baby train ride. it was beautiful up there.

This was from the very tip top. it was kinda scary looking down. sky loved it, she ate her lolli pop the whole way.

Then we got on a trolly and rode around the city. it took us close to millenium park. we got out and walked about t mile to get there. we were seriously cramped in that thing, but it was really fun!

THE BIG BEAN

This was at millenium park. its just a hug splash thing for people to cool off. it was really cool. your right in the middle of the city!

This is where the water is falling from, and it has someones face on it, pretty cool!

Then we walked to the subway to ride out of the city. Mae said we rode it about 20 miles out to meat her hubby to pick us up. wow that was an experience. i have only seen it in the moves, but it is exactly what we see, a bunch of people cramped in to a bus going REALLY fast. that thing was crazy. As you can see the girls fell asleep on it.

We saw this on our way home he was not scared odf us at all.They took us to some authentice atalian pizza resturante. the owner cane and talked to us, and he sounded like he was straight out of the sopranos. i seriously wanted to tape him, he was really funny! it was the BEST day ever. we had sooooo much fun, and am so glad we got to do that before we left.
