the bean.

(picture found on google images)

All summer I have been wanting to take pictures next to the famous bean sculpture in Millenium Park. It's like the number one touristy thing to do and for some reason it took us three months to do it! We are always on our way to other things and we never have time to stop and look at it. 

The other night we were walking home from dinner, passing Millenium Park, and I made Todd stop and take pictures in front of it with me. It's crazy that we actually live in this city, because sometimes I still feel like a tourist. 

The bean sculpture is actually called "Cloud Gate"and was completed in 2006. It is 42 feet high and weighs 110 tons! I think it's pretty cool.
