CLOUDY CHICAGO – CLOUD GATE & ARCHITECTURE RIVER BOAT TOUR (APRIL 2015) + VIDEO

CHICAGO – APRIL 2015!
Photos from two days absorbing Chicago’s architecture from land and boat. Also includes a 30 Second video that you can see halfway through or here.

Enjoy!

I never updated photos from the few days I went without documenting in Chicago. Sights included Anish Kapoor’s famous Cloud Gate in Millenium Park…

And lots of shots of Kiki LIVING it up in Chitown

I like the squiggly reflection of the cement

Kind of like Cloud Gate in the clouds, it disappears into the sky

Underneath Cloud Gate

Poopin’

Isn’t it great isn’t it great

Cloud Gate has only been here since 2006

However, on cloudy days the smudges and scratches on the surface are more emphasized.

But certainly room to see what you’d look like if you ever gave birth fully clothed

Pretty wood against the buildings consumed by cloud

Into the miiiiiist

30 Seconds in Chicago (including Cloud Gate and what you’ll see next…)

Wilco Towers! We’re on the architecture boat tour, which everybody told me was the best thing to do in Chicago. It was a sunny day and we had this adorable little woman dressed for church as our guide.

Chicago has lots of bridges

The sun is exhausting

The big blank wall is where the stage is inside the opera house

Abandoned giant post office

We didn’t notice they were boarding the boat, so we got the last choice of seats INSIDE. It was a beautiful day so we just chose to stand at the sides
