Angela and I went to the Adler Planetarium today. Another landmark crossed off the list! This is where the oldest planetarium in the western hemisphere is located. I've grown up with an astronomy professor for a dad, so of course I hate astronomy with a passion. But I still wanted to see this place. And we had a bit of fun.
Then tonight I walked to Grant Park to meet Molly (from WeFarm) at the Chicago SummerDance festival. This event occurs every weekend night throughout the summer. Free dance lessons are offered in Grant Park and live bands perform into the night. Tonight it was swing dancing (so of course I was desperate to go!)
Unfortunately Molly got there late so it took us a long time to catch up with everyone else. And I always feel awkward dancing with another chick but everyone had paired up by that point! :( BUT we had some fun and afterward we walked a block over to the Taste of Chicago festival.
Remember Taste of OC? Well this is Chicago's version. Two solid weeks of 9AM-11PM FOOOOOOD from all corners of the city. Every tent represents a different restaurant. It's super crowded!
I went to the Cubby Bear tent. The Cubby Bear is a cool club right by Wrigley Field (get it? The Cubs...the Cubby Bear...haha). THEY HAD AMAZING BBQ BEEF SANDWICHES. Haley and I are going back for dinner tomorrow. Yummers.
