Chicago, Day 1. It was a busy day, we went to the Field Museum of Natural History, the Adler Planetarium, and the Shedd Aquarium. Apparantly this is field trip week at the elementary schools, because there were school buses and kids everywhere. They swarmed like locusts.

The Field Museum has the most complete T-Rex skeleton ever found. Her name is Sue. We saw her, and we walked through the bird exhibit (of course) and the Native American exhibit. Outside the Field there is a brontosaurus skeleton, and it was wearing a giant Blackhawks jersey. So cool. There is also an Olmec head outside, which is what I am standing next to.

At the planetarium we got to see two shows, the Stargazers of Africa and Night Sky Live. I think the first one was about African people using the stars for navigation, mythology, etc. I'm not sure because I fell asleep. The Night Sky Live showed how to find constellations. It was cool.

The aquarium was pretty cool, too. They had fish, frogs, snakes, turtles, and whales. Little Beluga ones. Very interesting.

We had Chicago deep dish pizza from Gino's East. It was delicious.
