Chicago–Day 2

Our first full day in Chicago we took it pretty easy and went to the Navy Pier.  We walked pretty much everywhere we went.  On our way to the pier we stopped and ate breakfast at Yolk.  It was delicious.  I have cinnamon roll waffles while the kids had a small sampler platter.  Grant was good and had oatmeal.

We are early birds and got the pier early but we enjoyed walking around and looking at everything.  Hayden tried to carry Addyson but that smile she wearing quickly disappeared when he dropped her.

It was very cold this morning so Addyson and I bought some hats to keep warm.  They were well used the entire time we were there.

After hats were purchased we found our boat that we were going to take a tour on.

We were able to see the light house and a great view of the city.  We were able to sit up top of the boat for about half of the trip before the kids got to cold and we went below.

Since we had such a big breakfast we stopped and got a snack at Garrett’s popcorn for lunch.  This was very good popcorn!!

After our quick snack we rode on the Ferris wheel, the carousel, and played a round of putt putt.  I will admit that Grant beat us all at golf.

Since we skipped lunch we had a nice supper at a restaurant called Mighty Nice.  I had some really good Kale soup.  The service was excellent and the atmosphere was nice as well.  We really enjoyed ourselves here.
