The weekend before Justin’s birthday, we took a quick trip to Chicago to celebrate the occasion. We started our day in the windy city with a long walk in the sunshine along the waterfront.

Our destination was the Field Museum, the only major museum in Chicago I had never visited, so I was especially excited to check it out.

The Field Museum is home to Sue the T Rex, the largest and most complete Tyrannosaurus Rex skeleton ever discovered. She’s mighty impressive, isn’t she?



Before walking back to our hotel, we stopped for a few minutes to admire the skyline as it glowed in the setting sun.

We found it very appropriate that the moon hung in the sky directly above the Adler Planetarium. And the cityscape view from the waterfront just never got old.

I have to agree with Frank Sinatra, Chicago is my kind of town.
