Chicago Aquarium and Cubs Game

 

 

 

 

The second day in Chicago we had very strange weather. When we woke up it was overcast, but no rain. We went to the Chicago aquarium. It was a huge aquarium! The swimming lizards and snakes were quite appealing to the boys. When we left the aquarium it was pouring rain. We weren't prepared with more than one umbrella, so as you can see from the picture we got drenched on our way back to the car. We had to go back to the hotel and change clothes. We were pressed for time, because we had tickets to the Chicago Cubs and Cleveland Indians baseball game. We showed up 45 minutes late, and the game started about 2 minutes after we sat down. We were very lucky that the game was delayed a while because of the weather. During the game it didn't rain at all. It was an awesome game! It was a tied score, so they had to go an extra inning. The Cubs pulled out a win in the 10th inning. We were all so excited! After leaving Wrigley Field and getting in our car it started pouring rain. I must admit, we lucked out that the weather cleared up enough to see the game. (You can't go to Chicago without seeing a baseball game.)
