After arriving at Union Station, I took a leisurely walk through the downtown loop to the Riverwalk. It's really a lovely place to hang out by the Chicago River. The path leads all the way out to Lake Michigan and Navy Pier.
Glug glug.
Here she is! A 148 foot four masted schooner.
By being in the right place at the right time, I got to help raise this sail! It was so fun! And a bit of work. It took two of us to raise this end, the "peak" and another two to raise the other side the "throat" (the side at the mast).
A lovely view of the Chicago skyline.
Had to get a cupcake. Rolling Stones, baby!
This street is a popular wedding photo spot.
Thanks for a nice day, Chicago!
