We found a nature center on Saturday and though it was off and on rain, we went there for a little while. We started to take a small hike in the woods, but the mosquitoes were pretty bad, so we decided against it. Noelle enjoyed running around and seeing the flowers.
On Sunday, we went into Chicago and just walked around. We went to a mall where there was a Lego store. Noelle loved seeing all the different things they had built there and the play tables they have there to play with some of the Legos. Then we rode the red line down a little ways and walked to the Field Museum and the Shedd Aquarium. We didn’t go in, but looked around. We saw a bunch of globes and the sailboats in a marina nearby. We could even see the Navy Pier from there, though it was a bit foggy. We stopped by a fountain in Millennium Park, though I don’t remember the name of it at the moment. I don’t know how much walking we did, but we hadn’t expected to do this much so we hadn’t brought the stroller. Noelle still walked most of the time. I was surprised. I thought as soon as we got back in the car she’d be out, but no, she talked the whole drive back to the hotel.
Anyway, she seemed to enjoy it a lot and Jeremy and I had a great walk even with the drizzling.
