在青年旅館吃過了簡單的早餐後,今天繼續用掉City Pass的景點之一,John G. Shedd Aquarium水族館,在寒冷的街道上等公車真的是得要全副武裝,冬天的裝備全部都要用上,Happy Feet在這個時候上映還真有FU.

 After simple breakfast, we were waiting for the bus to John G. Shedd Aquarium. On the cold day I put on all winter stuff.

看起來萬里晴空,其實在接近五度左右的溫度冷得要死。

Even it looked so sunny, the temperature was around 5. It was freezing!

進到室內感覺得救了,一進入眼簾就是一堆活跳跳的海洋生物。

It was so warm when we entered the aquarium! A lot of see animals were swimming.

The frogs looked like fake toys.

看起來軟綿綿的長條像鰻的生物看起來有點噁心。

超可愛的海獺 Super Cute otters! My favorite!

  

A cute youtube video about otters : Otters holding hands

這裡的海洋表演秀有點了笑。

The dolphin show is nothing special. So poor dolphins.

Penguins are special here, but in Taiwan they are so popular.

It is so beautiful underwater! Too many creatures. The world is so big.

離開了水族館,我們計畫在傍晚去John Hancocok Center看高空景色,可以同時看到黃昏和夜晚的風景。路上經過了Historic Water Tower.是過去用來儲水消防救災用途。

It’s not a church. It was used to put out fire in the past.

It’s a famous landmark, John Hancock Center, where we were going to visit.

這就是等等要去的John Hancock Center.

There is a Lego’s store. They make famous landmarks by logo, so amazing.

還可以動態展示盒子裡的模型,感覺好高科技。

The machine can show what the model will look like.

吃包子!還可以用旁邊的自助點餐機點餐,吃包子感覺很時尚,也許可以考慮以後來開一間。

登上John Hancock Center,這就是芝加哥(Chicago)!剛好趕上黃昏時間.

The sunset is the most beautiful time!

芝加哥的市景一樣令人震撼,雖不像紐約感覺非常繁華,但從熱鬧中帶有種寧靜感,整條街道被街燈裝飾的閃閃發亮,在這裡每一條街道都有生命力。

The different view from New York’s. It’s more peaceful and every street is lit up by lights.

這裡缺點就是不是露天的,完全在室內所有都有室內燈的反光。喝了免費贈送的咖啡在這裡待了兩個小時享受高空臨下城市街燈的浪漫氣氛。

It’s indoor so the window reflects the lights. We drank coffee and stayed here for 2 hours, so romantic and relaxed.

沒想到我能親自看到以前在明信片和海報上的景色!

I saw them from the pictures, now I see it personal!

 

高空廊道實在有夠冷!

It’s open so windy.

想像自己在高樓上洗窗戶,這裡的窗戶是人工洗的!

How can they wash the windows at the high building?!

SAM_2825.JPG 

離開了John Hancock Center,聽說這裡的The Cheesecake Factory 才是第一間,那我幹嘛在舊金山吃那麼多次啊!

I heard it’s the The cheesecake factory. Why I tried it in San Francisco many times!

SAM_2826.JPG  

來芝加哥要吃他們道地的厚披薩,選了一間知名的Giorfano,等座位等了15分鐘,等她們現點現做現烤的厚披薩讓我們等了40分鐘!都快失去耐性了!

Typical deep-dish stuffed Chicago pizza time! We chose the famous one which it’s called Giorfano’s. We waited for seat for 15mins. And we waited for the pizza for 40 mins !!!!

好在味道還不錯,濃濃起司但不騷,裡面我們選加了香腸和蘑菇,價格不算便宜。不過這樣厚批薩兩個人實在吃不完,打包帶走。

Anyway it tasted good. It wass stuffed melted cheese. We added sausage and mushroom for topping. Too much for two persons! We took it away for tomorrow!

每天吃這樣的披薩實在太胖啦!

Tooo fulllll!
