Jenjalan US 2008 - Chicago, IL (Day2)

Chicago, Illinois (3rd - 4th July 2008)

Day 2
We woke early since tak nak rugi masa. Checked out from the hotel and simpan semua bags dlm kereta. Dah settle simpan barang, bermula episod jelajah Chicago.

We took a stroll along the Grant Park. Cantik, especially time Summer ni. We did take some pics around the park, and not to missed the Buckingham Fountain too. Kata orang since fountain ni dah jadi landmark Chicago, tak complete la trip ke Chicago kalau takde gambar kat fountain ni.

While walking in the park, kami start atur plan. We've decided to start with the Shedd - The World's Aquarium, the largest indoor aquarium in the world. At first our impression was like, sure lebih kurang Aquaria KLCC la ni. However, we were wrong.

Shedd Aquarium is HUGE! They seems like have the collection of the underwater world, globally. Really impressive and not to be missed while you're in Chicago. Dlm Shedd, kami sempat tgk dolphin show dgn Spongebob 4D show. It was interesting though even nothing to shout compared to those in Disney. We were amazed with the collection of the underwater creatures yg ada dlm tu, especially those dlm Wild Reef.




From Shedd Aquarium we took a boat ride on the Michigan Lake from Shedd Aquarium to Navy Pier. The ride was around 15 minutes and dpt la tgk Chicago skyline from the lake. Navy Pier nampak mcm meriah, byk activities for the kids. But we decided to skip, since our next target is HRC Chicago.



We get some souvenirs from HRC and had our lunch there. The nachos, vegie burger and grilled salmon was great. The portion are big, siap leh tapau bawa balik.

From HRC we walked back to Millennium Park. On the way, we did stopped at few boutiques (as usual, mr ayah sempat lagi beli suit). At millennium park, ader Cloud Gate, design lebih kurang mcm bean. Ramai betul org kerumun bean nie. Semua nak tgk reflection masing2 :D We skipped the Crown Fountain coz we knew, kalau lalu situ, confirm littleman sangkut kat situ. Ramai betul budak main air kat situ. Joey je yg pergi snap pictures kat situ.

We headed back to our car, and bergerak balik ke Kent, Ohio, joey's place.

More pics are in our FP and FB.

Ayoi, asal ko tak bawak motor kau je jelajah US ... baru aaa Biker sket :P kekeke. tapi kau kena tumbuh janggut n pakai beanie dulu.... dan beli jeket kulit dan beli but terminator etc etc etc...

Troxion: Best gak jelajah US naik motor.. Janggut boleh bela, beanie tak yah pakai sebab botak. Jaket kulit dah ada. Cukup la syarat jadi bikers, termasuk perut boroi.

Yg bean tu mmg cool, the whole structure is flawless, mcm dia buat dari satu acuan besar je. Meh la dtg sini, kita pi jumpa Joey.

Same thing I'm going to say to you Mister Abah, as I told Miss Nelly kat Switzerland:

Enjoy lah korang sekarang. Kay Hell (KL)in Mesia sabar menanti kepulangan mu itew. Kerja melambak . . .

Sah, statement orang yg sungguh jeles.

Qirzah: You're absolutely correct. We are trying the best to take advantage of the situation. Even though I get to travel for my works, but the family can't follow. Now since we got the opportunity, better make full use out of it. Correct?

ZaTiL said...

the family can't follow ke, or mmg takmo kasik follow :P

qirzah: mcm teringin la plak nak terbang turun ke buenos aires ;)

qirzah said...

Ayoi,
Statement itew sanggat disokong!

Zatil,
Mi casa es tu casa. Spare bedrooms dah ada . . . Anytime menanti.

Alang2 tu, bawak lah skali LOBMONSTER . . . . yang dah masak. Tak kuasa aku nak masak kat sini. Buat kotor dapur yang sememangnyer bersih jarang digunakan.

Kantoi!

aiseh qirzah, kalau i bwk yg dah masak takde chance la u nak tgk lobmonster tergedik2 menggeletis dlm periuk ;)
