Chicago

So, I've been spending a good deal of time in Chicago lately. I think its a really beautiful city, although I probably haven't seen as much of it as I should. So, just to prove that I do occasionally leave the hotel, here are some pics to prove it.




This is a multimedia art piece found in Millenium Park. It was pretty cool; it was like watching a person react to different things, only huge. The people kept changing also, so it was interesting to watch, particularly as it got darker.


The front view of the Art Institute of Chicago. They had a great Edward Hopper exhibit that I went to see. I only got to spend a half hour there, between the time I got off work and they closed for the night, so I only saw the Hopper exhibit. Maybe I'll get another chance to see the rest fo it later.





I'm not sure what this building is, but its on Michigan Ave, as is the tower in the next shot.

Next time, I'll try to venture off of Michigan Ave to see some Chicago sights. Stay tuned!

So have you come across Garrett Popcorn yet? It's on Michigan Ave, and there's frequently a line out the door. People are really into the caramel and cheese popcorns mixed together. Don't you think a six gallon tin would be a nice addition to your hotel room?

I have seen it! So funny that you would mention it! And there is always a line! I haven't been swayed yet, but maybe I should give it a try...

Why venture off Michigan avenue? From what I understand - that's all there is in Chicago.
