We started our morning off with a trip to Walgreens to get snacks aka breakfast. These snacks lasted us the next two mornings. We then took our second cab of the trip to the aquarium.
We got there just a few minutes before they opened so we took some crazy pictures with the Chicago skyline in the background.
Hayden was super excited about this day because we would get to see sharks. We sat down and watched them for awhile.
Thought it was funny that both of the next two pictures the animal/cute girls were posing for pictures.
After the aquarium we decided to walk the two miles back to our hotel. Along the way we were able to stop at two places I really wanted to see. Our first stop was Grant Park.
We had trouble getting around the park because they were getting ready for the Chicago marathon that was to take place that weekend. We finally did make it to the fountain. It was pretty impressive.
We then made our way to Millennium Park. By this point the kids were tired of walking but we had only gone half of the way. Luckily I had a small snack for them to give them the energy to make it all the way back.
In this park we visited the Bean. It was fun to take pictures and goof off.
As we continued to walk back to our hotel there was a Starbucks lady handing out free samples of an iced coffee drink. She promised there was no caffeine so we grabbled it continued on our way.
For supper this night we hit a local hotdog place call Downtown Dogs. We grabbed the food to go and ate in our hotel room. The hotdogs were good but their french fries were the best!!
