Chicago - The Windy City

We recently visited Chicago for the wedding of Tim & Monica. Tim is Chris' friend from university. We enjoyed the wedding very much, since it was a good opportunity to meet up with old friends. We also had a few days to be tourists and see the sites of Chicago – scale 103 floors to the top of the Sears Tower, see the lions at Lincoln Park Zoo, relax in Millennium Park, shop on the 'Magnificent Mile', see the dolphins play at the Shedd Aquarium, the stars at the Adler Planetarium and see the largest and most complete T-Rex fossil ever found at the Field Museum. Lin got to do a spot of sunbathing at the beach and we both 'swam' in Lake Michigan. A visit to Chicago would be incomplete without some type of sport and we managed to take in a game of baseball, watching the Chicago White Sox lose to the Boston Red Sox. See our photo album (plus a few of the professional pics) and videos below:
