Summer Days

Last Saturday Chris and I spent the a fun summer day at Olive Beach by Navy Pier. I love the Chicago beaches. Lake Michigan looks more like an ocean to me than a great lake, and the city skyline behind the sandy beaches is a beautiful scenic backdrop. Saturday was perfect weather and I think I actually sweated. I do miss the Midwest heat since the summer weather here is not as hot. My hair doesn't miss the humidity one bit though.

On Sunday Chris and I walked our way through Lincoln Park eventually making our way up to Lincoln Park zoo. It was my first time to the free zoo. The zoo was entertaining to say the least. Each habitat had the typical zoo animals including lots of little kids running around screaming at glass-shattering pitches. A pidgen pooped on my leg - still not sure how he hit only the back of my calf missing my butt entirely. It was an easy aim to clean up, although Chris took his sweet time to get napkins for my pidgen-pooed leg. While we wondered through the reptile house, Chris and I saw the most entertaining action for the day. The photo below explains it all.

Chris and I seem to find humor wherever we go, so a day at the park and zoo was so much fun.
