Millenium Park

This park is in the middle of downtown Chicago and it is a delightful and unexpected green space with a number of additional surprises. Like "The Bean"

a dinosaur


some chalk artists


an outdoor amphitheatre


with lots of speakers throughout.


and these fountains with the play space in between them. But they aren't just glass blocks cascading water,


there are photographs of ordinary Chicago citizens on them.


Citizens who occasionally spout more water.

Great update on Chicago for me. Don't know if it has changed that much since I was there or the fact that it was the middle of winter, but looks like there is a lot of things to see there.
