Went to Chicago on Tuesday for the annual German Christkindlmarkt - Christmas Market - with Raine's German class. We spent the morning on Daley Plaza visiting our favorite booths and buying our annual Christmas ornaments. Of course we had to have wurst and potato pancakes for lunch!. After browsing the fun stalls of hand made German and world gifts we crossed the street for another annual trek - our trip to Marshall Fields on State Street. We purists refuse to call it Macys, it will never be Macys.....
After doing the downtown - we headed over to the Brookfield Zoo for a couple of hours. Last year we never got to the wolves, so this year that was where we headed first. A bit anti-climatic if you ask me....the wolves were looking a little too well fed and lethargic. Criminy, Teiko looks like a better wolf than these guys.....
To warm up we went into the South American Aquarium Building - Raine got a cool shot of some type of shining grouper'ish fish through the glass as it zoomed by. I took the shot of the star fish on the glass.
