GETTING HOME

 Getting home from the Art Institute was another matter.  The marathon was over and everyone was trying to get out of town at the same time. 

We made our way to the underground El along with everyone else.

The train was pretty crowded when it arrived, and it just got worse and worse until there wasn't room to jam  another person on.

ART INSTITUTE OF CHICAGO

 Darrell and I took the train into downtown Chicago to visit the Art Institute of Chicago.  

We didn't realize we would arrive in the middle of a marathon.  There were lots of streets closed to vehicles, police barricades and lots and lots of spectators and other people.

But, it was an easy walk to the Art Institute where we encountered a long line waiting to get in.

But, the line moved quickly and we headed straight to the second floor to check out the Impressionists first.  

Darrell was excited to find this multi-legged table by Mackintosh.
