Our summer road trip this year was to Illinois. 1st stop: Woodstock to hang with the N's. Saturday AM we hopped aboard the Metra and went into the city. We didn't realize that Lolapalooza was going on downtown as well as a Cubbies game. The train was PACKED by the time the Cubs fans got off. Lots of variety in the clothing choices of the Lolapalooza crowd.
We spent the day walking around the city. We couldn't pass up Daly Plaza. The boys were really engaged with the architecture and connection to all the movies they've seen that were filmed here. Most notably, The Blues Brothers.
The Bean had just been completed before we moved to Nebraska. This was the first time we have seen it. Wow!! It's Awesome!
Millennium Park was packed with the normal crowds plus all the Lolapalooza folks on their way to Grant Park for the concert.
From Millennium Park, we wandered north and east thru some beautiful condos on our way to Navy Pier.
