Indiana and Chicago
... by/underpasses that run through. We did some sightseeing of the architectural highlights and the sculptures in the central Millennium Park. My favourite contrast was 'the Bean' - a huge odd shaped highly polished aluminium blob, surrounded by angular skyscrapers. The mirrored skyline made for some confusing shapes!
