A Mid-July Trip to Chicago

·Illinois, United States·#summer#family trip#chicago#illinois#millennium-park
A large, reflective sculpture is surrounded by many people, with tall city buildings under a blue sky.

We went to Millennium Park, which was packed with people on a clear summer day. We walked around the Cloud Gate sculpture, taking the requisite photos of our distorted reflections against the backdrop of the Chicago skyline. It’s an impressive structure, and everyone was trying to get their own unique angle.

To finish the day, we got a great view of the city from above. The girls were all smiles in the gondola of the Ferris wheel, looking out the window as the sun started to set over the skyscrapers and the waterfront.
