Summer in the City

Finn, Wylie, Mom, and I are doing our very best to squeeze the fun out of every last minute of summer.  We had three "Grandma Days" last week and are looking forward to two this week.  Last Friday's adventure was one of the simplest, most fun, and allowed me to stay in a good mood rather than turn into the grouchy Mommy. 

We took the green line into the city, paused at Starbuck's for some caffeine and a potty break, then hopped on the water taxi to Michigan Avenue.  We ate lunch at Corner Bakery while watching and listening for flyovers as the jets were out practicing for the air show.  Finn was in little boy heaven as we got to ride the water taxi and train again to get back home, all the while hunting for "giant planes" to fly by.
