She-kaw-go continued

The Field Museum

There are several museum's in Chicago to choose from...

I wanted to see The Children's museum, but long story short we ended up choosing this one!

It was awesome!!

There were tons of exhibits,

and we bought a year membership so now we are guaranteeing we will be back for sure.

animal exhibit
water exhibit
LUCKY us there was a pirate exhibit going on for the next 2 months too!!
bug exhibit
Tons of fun stuff to see and do. We really enjoyed the Field Museum.
After that we mozied on over to Sears Tower, the highest building in town, so we could get a look out and actually see the landscape of 4 other states.
However, the line was super long so we're saving that experience for NEXT time.
Instead, we sat and played in downtown She-kaw-go!
(still more to come)

How fun!! You are seriously one of the most well-traveled girls I know. Lucky you!! I bet that pirate exhibit was RIGHT up your little pirate's alley!

The Art Institute is my fave museum ever and it's the one in downtown Chicago. They have some of the most famous works of art there (not necessarily up Tanner's alley!) but you should go sometime whenever you get back there. And did you get popcorn from Garretts? DELISH!

Jill, Thanks for your sweet comment on my blog. I LOVED seeing all the pics of Chicago! My husband went to the U of C for graduate school and south Chicago (by the field museum) is our old turf! I'm glad you guys had fun! Did you walk along lake Michigan?

Oh, and I second the Art Institute being the best--but maybe not for Tanner...I love it, though!
