Shikaakwa or Our Trip to the Wild Onions

Obligatory Buckingham fountain shot

Hello Windy City. A daddy “work trip” brought the clan to Chicago for a week. Chicago should be called museum city as there appears to be a never ending supply of housed edification for the visitors. We took in the Museum of Science and Industry, the Art Institute, the Field Museum. the Childrens’ Museum, and The Shedd Aquarium. On top of that, we went to the beach on Lake Michigan, ate at the Taste of Chicago, and had a boat ride on the Chicago river to take in the architectural sites. We swam in the hotel pool almost every night and even had room service once. We saw our pals Gus, Marilyn, Betty, and Joseph who helped us enjoy the city sites even more. Chicago also has some pleasing eats. These include our trip to Chinatown, two trips to Giordano’s for deep dish, and even an “adult” trip to Alinea (which requires its own recapitulation of our blown minds courtesy of G. Achatz). Fun times documented in the Chicago album.

Save Ferris!

Just as good as Zachary's. I know. Blasphemy right?
