July 4 Chicago Sightseeing - Millennium Park and Shedd Aquarium

More walking today.  Downtown is very walkable and there is a lot to see.  First stop was Millennium Park, along the lakefront.






While there we discovered "The Bean", an absolutely fascinating, gigantic art piece.











We also found the band shell

and the Buckingham Fountain.






The walk gave us great views of the city skyline 



and took us through many flower gardens.








We ultimately ended up at the Shedd Aquarium









where Liam particularly enjoyed the penguins (his favorite animal).
