So this morning we woke up a little groggy, due to some pretty tasty brews at a local pub in downtown Indianapolis Monday night. That didn't stop us from checking out the city with a chilly walk around downtown with Blixen, who appreciated getting out of the hotel, but was tuckered out after two miles. The highlight of our Indy adventure was walking around the amazing canal system and parks AND OF COURSE the NCAA Hall of Fame Museum.
Then we were off to yet another state. Three and a half hours later after passing the largest wind farm we've ever seen, we arrived in the beautiful and huge Chicago. We hit a few highlights early on, stopping by Garretts popcorn for a caramel/chedder cheese mix, which was AMAZING, and then making our way down Michigan Avenue, veering East to Navy Pier and the Ferris Wheel.
I'm not going to lie, I was terrified... that Ferris Wheel was not only ginormous, but moved so darn slowly! I may have had a mild freakout, at which Jared laughed profusely, yet I survived and laughed with him once it was all over. The views of the city from the top were absolutely gorgeous, although we disagreed on which Great Lake we were admiring... Jared was right, Lake Michigan.... oooppps.
We have a full day of Chicago site seeing tomorrow! Night all!
