Saturday morning we walked back down to Wrigley Field. This time to watch a game.
We got there early enough to see batting practice, walk around and get pictures, and of course, get some yummy, not-at-all-healthy food! This is what Bailey and I decided to go for first--jumbo nachos. We ate every.single.bite.
Enjoying suffering through sitting at the game. It was much cooler than we expected it to be. And it also misted/rained through most of the game. Luckily our seats were covered and we didn't get wet (yet). After the game we went back to the hotel for naps and then went to Gino's East for dinner. This was one of those "must-do" things while in Chicago--you have to go eat Chicago style pizza.
Our SMALL meaty legend pizza. I only ate one piece, along with some salad, and I think Bailey only ate two pieces. It was quite filling.
We debated on what to do next as it was still raining/misting. We decided to brave the rain and go to Navy Pier. We managed to take the "L" and a bus to get us there.
Waiting at the bus stop.

Just in case you needed to know how far these places were from this spot at Navy Pier.
We got a little wet but it ended up being a pretty nice evening. We did a little shopping and, luckily, they started the Ferris wheel up right before we were going to leave.
A not-so-great picture from the top of the Ferris wheel.
One more post to follow about the remainder of our trip. Stay tuned.....
