Millennium Park


On Sunday we went to Millennium Park. I can see why they call it part of the "greening of Chicago"; the gardens are beautiful! Julien was a bit nervous about the fountain. He took some convincing and then gleefully ran through the water, until another boy ran smack into him and knocked him down. That was the end of that.

We then went on the architecture boat tour. It was very cool. Julien loved it. He was very quiet and listened very carefully. The last couple nights he has asked me to tell him the story of the boat tour as his night time story.

Another thing Julien loved on this trip was when Grandpa Bill told him stories of the history of Chicago. Some details of the story (like the fire of Chicago) were confirmed on our tour. Julien said emphatically with the gesture of his fist "Grandpa Bill, he knows!"
