Mackenzie visits Chicago!

Today we met Mackenzie, Tyler, Matt, and Amy (Mack's roommate) downtown. Tyler and Matt are running the Chicago Marathon tomorrow! Rick and I took the train to down town and met them near Matt's apartment. Matt and Tyler went to register for the race while Amy, Mack, Rick, and I went to Millenium Park and Buckingham Fountain. Today was soooo hot for October. We were sweating!

Amy and Mack on the swing at Millenium Park!

Rick and Me on the swing!

Can you find us?


At Buckingham Fountain wiping off the sweat...

Mack talking to Tyler...finding out how long they would be until they were back for lunch.


We went to the Chicago Hilton to wait for Tyler and Matt. We enjoyed the air conditioning and the expensive water. We ventured to the top/private floors to see the view. When asked why were up there, Rick answered because he was admiring the architecture.

Rick loves this red building. It was on our way back to our train.

This was a vintage Metra train that was at the station today. Rick took this cool picture with the city in the background.

That is a cool picture! I'm going to Chicago with Zack's mom on November 10 to see JERSEY BOYS, and luckily we are staying in a hotel downtown, not at his sisters :) Zack and I are going to try and set up a visit early next semester because he has used up his off days! :( Are you ever going to return to Mun-tucky?
