Chicago and Grandpa's Birthday

Last week, Grandpa and Grandma treated us to a trip to Chicago. Grandpa wanted a Chicago Dog at Wrigley Field for his birthday and we were happy to join him.

Our trip began at Union Station where we boarded the Amtrak to Chicago. Between movies and trips to the observation car, it turned out to be a fun and relaxing 7 hour trip. In Chicago, we stayed downtown and took in all the sites. Besides the Cub's game, we rode the carousel at Navy Pier, checked out the top of the Willis Tower, spend a day at the Shedd Aquarium, visited Sue at the Field Museum, took the water taxi down the Chicago River and played in Crown Fountain.

We had great weather and so much fun checking out Chicago with Grandma and Grandpa. According to Andy, "It was AWESOME!".
