Chicago? It's totally on the way from Columbus to Utah. Well, close enough.
We heard we HAD to eat at this amazing restaurant called "The Yolk", but so did 4,987,462,385,392,598,564 other people. So, during the forever wait, we went for a little walk. It's a good thing too. Their breakfasts were more like desserts!

| Of course as soon as I saw the park I thought, "This is the perfect place for a bunch of feet." I guess I just don't get some art work. |
 |
| By the time our turn came up, Lucy was snoozing. She needed a little pillow and Jordan was ingenious enough to provide one for her (baby wipes!) |
 |
| The Chicago Zoo is FREE!!! WOOHOO!! |
 |
| The Lioness's (not me, Lucy and the Lion) |
 |
| I guess with all the zoo's we've been visiting, exotic animals have become a bit of a bore to Lily. Her favorites were the farm animals! |
 |
| Once we discovered how pocket wrenching parking prices were ($16/hour!) we fell in love with public transportation. Which took us right to the most famous park in Chicago. |
 |
| "The Bean" One of Chicago's most famous tourist attractions. |
Fun Fact: I saw this on a Hot Dog stand sign, "It is considered unlawful and harmful to your taste buds to put Ketchup on your Chicago Hot Dog."

| We (especially the girls) were absolutely exhausted. But, we HAD to eat a Chicago Pizza. And not just any, the best. Lou Mahati's. Of course another 493,304,684,384,392,473,201,343 other people wanted this amazing pizza as well. It was worth the wait and dealing with exhausted (AKA Whinny & Clingy) girls on top of our own exhaustion. Out-of-this-world delicious enough for Jordan to request a picture with the box. |
Wow! Lily petted one of the animals! Although I love how she stands as far as possible while reaching to touch it. Love all the pictures!
