Chicago - in black and white

Two of my favorite pictures from our outing to Chicago today.  It was wet and foggy - raining on and off.

Shedd Aquarium

Fantasea - another word for corny.... see the Shedd, skip the Fantasea show - yawn

Day 2 Chicago

Just getting ready to start our 2nd full day in the Chicago area.  We are on our way to visit the Shedd Aquarium -- hopefully I'll have some pictures later.

Yesterday we went to Dave and Busters  and ate, played and drank just like they advertise.  We played a shooting game and I didn't realize until we were shooting soldiers in the back that we were firing on our team members.  I liked shooting baskets and playing the Deal or No Deal game.  We played some kind of poker pop game that was fun.  Then you take all the tickets you win and buy stuff in the store.  Tom may be seen walking around in a caveman tie.

Tuesday when we got to Cathy's we played WII for quite a few hours. We bowled, hulla hooped, marched in a band and did yoga.  We also had a few cocktails and ate tacos.  It was a great start to our Spring Break!
