Chi Town Road Trip

The morning after the DMB concert, we packed up the car and headed East to Chicago!
This was Drew's first time there and it's one of our favorite places
so we were all really excited to go,
plus these two are pros at road tripping, so win-win!
 
Love and marriage, love and marriage, go together like a horse and carriage...
We saw the famous fountain on our way in to the city, all that was missing was the Bundys. 
So much to see in this city, it really is one of the most beautiful places in America. 
Soldier Field, home of Da Bears!
To your right, Lake Michigan and hundreds of sail boats off of Navy Pier.
To your left, sky rise buildings... so cool! 
Lunch before the Cards/Cubs game at Wrigley. 
Cubbie the Bear
(we think this might have been a knock-off mascot out in the street, but Maeryn didn't care!)

Johnny Mac's first big league game! 


apparently the game itself wasn't all that exciting... 
Such a great park.  Such an awesome day.

After the game was had some famous Chicago style pizza from Gino's!
Sooooo good. 
Day 2 in Chicago we decided to go to the Shedd Aquarium. 

Some of the highlights were the Baluga Whales! 
and Dolphins! 





Probably the coolest thing I've ever seen in an aquarium, was the saw-tooth shark!
It was really hard to get a good picture because the room was so dark,
so this was the best I could do... doesn't really do it justice.
This thing was amazing. 
A few final pictures of this awesome city.
