Lincoln Park Zoo

We took a little trip up to Lincoln Park for the zoo (free :) ), a genuine chicago cow, a veggie-free chicago dog for David (does that really qualify as a chicago dog?), and fun times.  I also learned that the 151 bus goes from union station to michigan ave to lincoln park on an 8 minute cycle.  good to know for future use.

Family Fun Time in the Big Easy

The family came to visit a couple of weeks ago. We took that oppertunity to head down to the Big Easy. Highlights of the trip included going to the Audobon zoo, the Aquarium of the Americas, Mardi Gras World, the French Quarter, and a Swamp Tour. Fun was had by all... and there was some good eating too!
