Inside the Museum of Science and Industry

Here are two cute pictures of Eamon as a clown in an exhibit about traveling circuses.


Here are Desmond and Conor and Eamon in a supersized tractor.
After some technical difficulties, I finally got this picture of Eamon, a shy and grumpy-looking Desmond, and Conor in the wheel of the above tractor.

Millenium Park in Chicago

Here are Eamon, Adam, and Conor in front of the coolest fountain ever in Millenium Park in Chicago. The image on the fountain rotates through the photos of 1,000 Chicago residents and, at regular intervals, water shoots out of the mouths as if the person is spitting, delighting all of the many children and adults gathered there on a hot day.

Desmond loved this fountain. It was definitely the highlight of the trip for him, maybe one of the highlights of his young life so far.

The Japanese Garden behind the Museum of Science and Industry in Chicago

Conor and Eamon at the Japanese Garden in Jackson Park, one of our old haunts from when Adam and I lived in Hyde Park, and just a few minutes walk from where we stayed.
