We don't get a Spring Break. We don't have any kids and we don't work in a school so Spring Break is just another week to us. There is usually a little less traffic and the offices are quieter, so that, in itself is a nice break. But this year, I got to take a little break myself. I took a day off after the Easter weekend to go to Chicago with my sister and her little spring breakers.
Vi didn't get to go with us, so we spent some quality time the night before playing some Disney trivia.
We got up super early, boarded the South Shore and headed to the big city.
We had to visit the Bean, and after a while, the kids got the idea about how the reflective surface works.
Since we took the train, we had to walk everywhere we wanted to go, so it was a little chilly, but we made the most of our walks by taking in the artwork along the way. A highlight was probably rolling down the hills in front of the Field Museum.
We hit up the Field Museum and the Children's Museum, and did a little shopping as well. It was a long day, but it was fun to hang out and catch up with the M kids.
