Chicago on another day

We found a train station one day and took a trip into Chicago proper. It took all day! Parked the behemoth truck in the last row of the 3 block parking lot, hiked up the the parking fee kiosks to pay, took a trip under the tracks to the station to buy tickets, and then waited 1.5 hours for our train to appear (on the otherside of the tracks, naturally). The trip took over an hour to get to Union Station in downtown Chicago, and then we had to find the bus to the Navy Pier. Finally got to our destination, just in time for...lunch at Bubba Gump Shrimp Company. Food was excellent. It was HOT that day, so spent most of the time looking at the display of stained glass windows and doors. Got home late after taking the express train home.
