    We took a walk down to the dock before heading out.

    This lighthouse was way off in the distance so I had to use all of my zoom to try to capture it.

    These guys were on someone's front porch. I think I was more captivated by the flowers they had though!

    Our final stop & probably the most fun was Canal Park.

    There was tons of neat shops,clubs & restaurants.
    A couple of lighthouses. A big park area. We definitely want to come back here sometime to explore it more.

    We fnished our day with dinner and a few cold ones at Old Chicago.

    Hubby & I each got a different sampler tray of beers.
    Mine were the ones on top & his are the ones below. Although we shared :)

    Daughter was just happy to finally find a place up north that has deep dish pizza.
    You can only find thin crust in the places around where we live at.

    When we walked out of the restuarant, I saw Hell's Kitchen right across the street! Now I really have to go back!

  • I no you had a good time! Great pics.!

  • I always love your pics! You had a great trip, but it wasn't complete because you didn't go to the Fish Boil! I don't think you can call yourself a Wisconsiner (Wisconsinite?) until you finally go to one!  :lol24:  Love the scarecrows and the flower pics. And the ore docks are way cool! I always love to see pics of lighthouses too!

    Hope you're having a good weekend! :kiss11:

  • Love the sunrise & the lighthouses. Lighthouses are just so awesome. Looks like a very cool trip. The pizza looks humongous! I've heard seagulls can be down right mean. Yes - go back to Hell's Kitchen & give us an update when you do! . :peacebaby18: & smiles
