John Hancock Observatory

We decided it would be fun to take CJ to the John Hancock Observatory our last night in Chicago. I think the Willis Tower was his favorite, but we had fun watching the fireworks from the top of the John Hancock tower too!

On our way to the John Hancock, we went by the Chicago Water Tower - the only building to survive the great Chicago fire of 1871.

You can see the Willis Tower in the distance



Sunday morning at our hotel room - time to pack up 


CJ kept busy on the flight back to MSP



We had a wonderful trip to Chicago and made so many memories. It was fun for our family to take a special vacation together - we look forward to many more in the future!
