Navy Pier

Went for a little drive into Chicago and decided to look around Navy Pier.
 

Our adventure

It was a little windy (no suprise being that it is the "windy city") and a little on the chilly side.  We had lunch, with a view of the entrance (to Navy Pier)

probably should have taken a picture before I started eating

grilled asparagus and red pepper panini with fontina cheese - mmm, delicious!

Lot's of shops to browse, even the easter bunny was there!

We looked at a stained glass exhibit

beautiful use of colors

designs

and, my little model

(even I tried to get in the picture!)

This is upclose on one of the windows

thought it looked cool

Bella with the Chicago skyline

smile for the camera

then there were two

where did they go?

Bella found the "X" and wanted to start digging for treasure

I asked RT to give me a couple of his favorites

Bella, Alex and I with the Chicago skyline

(either I'm shrinking or Alex is growing)

and, of course, a tree branch with the Chicago skyline in the background

RT does have this obsession with tree branches

I think it's a cool pic

we left Navy Pier and will hopefully return when it is warmer (and we can go on the ferris wheel)

drove around looking at some of the buildings

I hopped out of the car to take these

RT told me I only had a minute, this is what I got

Here's Trump tower

an innocent bystander using his cell phone

The last leg of the trip drivingi past the United Center, but, we made one last stop for a picture at

832 W. Randolph Street

home of the former D.J. Karos Co.

Until next time....
