On the Buses!

Getting around Chicago is very easy. Up to now we have used the CTA Metro but today we ventured onto the CTA Buses.

We decided to go to the Shedd Aquarium. First we went to the Adler Planetarium which is at a point so there are views  along the Lake front



The Planetarium which we did not visit
and the the Chicago skyline

We enjoyed the visit and some of the displays were very impressive. However we felt some of tanks were too small for the big fish and we would have enjoyed it more with Isla and Eva. At $39.95 each we thought it was not value for money. We then had another look around the Museum Campus where the Football Stadium is as well.

Back to the bus stop to catch the bus back to our hotel for a cuppa!


In the afternoon we took a bus ride to and up what is called the Magnificent Mile - their Oxford Street.
