Chicago

There was my cousin's engagement party in Chicago last weekend. And I went to Chicago last early Friday to see my relatives and Chicago downtown also.
.
A day before short trip, I studied about Chicago for 3 hours and I focused on Grant park, John Hancock Center and the Art Institute of Chicago.
I was worried about the weather because I heard that the possibility of precipitation of Chicago was 30%. However, the weather was really good and I and my friend could enjoy the amazing atmosphere of Grant park. :)
.
Next time, we went to the Art Institute of Chicago.

This picture is drawn by Pompeo Batoni. I could feel the obvious contrast of masculinity and femininity. The mascular man in the armor and the beautiful woman with willow makes perfect harmony!

I have no information about this picture. But, I like the depict of woman's eyes.


.
And, another interesting picture.

On Saturday, I went to the John Hancock Center observatory. The scenery of Chicago was really good. I could see 360 degree of Chicago, Loop and Lake Michigan.

I stayed in Chicago 3 days with one of my relatives. It was really good time. The time in Chicago was totally different from New York. - peaceful- :)

Chicago is a great city and has some fantastic restaurants. I have the good luck to get there a few times a year with work.
