Day 4 - Chicago Planetarium


 Today we took a taxi across to the museum campus to check out the Planetarium.

We first went to the kids show featuring Big Bird and Elmo which was a bit too young.  Really for under 5s only - but still it was fun.  We then headed for the main show which was a bit better, got into more of the solar system.  Lexie loved the premise of being in a space ship flying through the solar system in a spaceship called Max.  Josh however slept through the whole thing - hey at least he was quiet.


Had a quick  bite to eat at the cafeteria.


Then a third show about the Chicago night sky and all the constellations - that was the one I really wanted to see.  It started snowing whilst we were  inside the planatarium but thankfully by the time we were ready to leave it had stopped again - still it was very cold.  But what a great view of the city from the front steps of the Planetarium.




We had to walk halfway back to the aquarium before we found a taxi, then headed back to the hotel.
