| A group of us from the Ultimate Fan Tour |
On our last day (Tuesday), we took the advice of Shana & Jeff and headed over to check out the Architectural Boat Tour of the Chicago River.

| Mallards on the river |
 |
| Lake Point Tower, the only skyscraper in this direct area, the builders found loopholes that were quickly adjusted before others could build in the area. |
 |
| As we discovered, I'm not such a fan. I like some of the more art deco & gothic style architecture like the Wrigley Building with it's clock tower |
 |
| Kinzie Street Railroad Bridge |
 |
| Batman Begins/Dark Knight anyone?! This is the old Chicago post office (left) that functioned as the bank being robbed at the beginning of the movie. |

| Chicago skyline - it really was a beautiful day for a ride on the river (which is no longer "Toxic", but now just "Polluted") |
I hope to get back to Chicago one day soon! So much more to see, do (and eat!) =)
Great pictures as always, Tanny :) Love some of the buildings too. So fun that you got to travel out there to enjoy the game.
ReplyDeleteAwesome pics!! It's a great time to be a Packers fan :0 Of course, it's always a great time to be a Packers fan (I have always told my hubby that if I weren't a Jets fan, I'd be a Packers fan ;)). Sorry, not the Pats… :D
ReplyDeleteGorgeous chicago pics! Thanks for sharing!
I love reading your travel logs...Makes me feel like I was there! It was great to see that big blue sky behind the buildings too, since I think that bright color will be a distant memory for a good while...Looks like so much fun!
