It was a neat thing to see. No trip to Millennium Park is complete without stopping to see the Bean! Lots of people taking pictures and milling about.

Gotta see this landmark in Chicago. Smart architecture at its best, and truly Chicago! The nice thing about Millennium Park is that you can spend a short time, or get lunch or coffee and stay a while! So welcoming and memorable!

We didn't stay and millennium park long, we mainly just made a stop for pictures with the "Bean". It is very cool to see this sculpture. It is amazing because as hard as you look you just don't see and seams. It looks like it came from alien world !!

Visiting Magnificent Mile d n of the parks near Michigan Avenue. The weather was bit cloudy, but it is great part of town to go for a walk.

A fascinating sculpture well worth the visit both day and night, don't miss Buckingham fountain nearby if it's a nice day

Fun visit for the family, even in the rain! The Chicago weather was not nice to us, but getting to show my son and husband this site and others was awesome! They were troopers even as we walked our way to the bean in the rain and cold!

So much fun to pose for a self portrait as well as to people watch. The park it is in is also nice to walk around in.

A wonderful sculpture by Anish Kapoor that has quickly became one of the main landmarks of Chicago. Open for all, and set at a backdrop of the city skyline - a definite must!

The cloud: fascinating and looks different from various angles and great photo opportunities. Vendors around selling drinks and ice cream too: a good half hour visit.
