Wrigley Field - Chicago Cubs vs Pittsburgh Pirates
Today we caught the subway to Addison where Wrigley Field is (located at 1060 West Addison for Blues Brothers fans). The Cubs unfortunately lost 7-6 but it was a good day for baseball and the fans were out in force.

Chicago Architecture Foundation Cruise
This was a 90 minute boat cruise starting near Lower Wacker Drive and cruising up the Illinous River with an architecture historian pointing out the various buildings and architectural influences over the past 175 years. There are many art deco and gothic buildings as well as modern buildings.
The tour also highlights the many bridges along the Chicago and Illinois rivers, many of which open up to allow taller ships through.

Chicago Sightseeing
Chicago is an amazing city. It's clean, safe....and big! It has 4 of the top 6 highest buildings in the USA. I don't think they bother constructing anything smaller than 50 stories.
