The Athena Conference Opens	Photographing the question and answer session	right outside the hotel; there were tulips everywhere!	The bridge abutments
The Chicago River	The Wrigley Building	The other abutment	Michigan Avenue
There were twinkling lights all over this wedding cake!	Springs flowers on every windowsill in the public library	and tulips in the median of Michigan Avenue	Millennium Park; more tulips!
that famous set of two monoliths with moving faces on them	Looking into the loop	The Pritzker Pavilion, designed by Frank Gehry	It actually is really really neat looking!
up close	Hoofing it back up Michigan Avenue; the Chicago Tribune building on the right	Down the Chicago River towards Lake Michigan	Outside the NBC studios
Front door of the Chicago Tribune Building	and looking up	All over the building, there are blocks or pieces from very famous buildings	The courtyard of the building
More tulips	The beach on the shore of the lake	A walkway/raceway along the shore	Interesting building!
Nicely accommodated	Outside the Contemporary Museum	There's a museum in the bottom of this tower	Michigan Avenue
Back to the conference!	There were exhibitors from the conference sponsors	And lunch speakers!	Back out to see the city!
Those famous condominiums -- they give you the willies!!!!!	The elevated trains	The Picasso in front of the Daley Center	Bicyclists massing for a protest ride
It is a pretty neat statue	This is actually a building filled with city offices and shops on the lower levels	The elevator structure is pretty amazing	And art is everywhere
Lots of construction!!	The elevated train!	Another piece stuck in the side of the Tribune building	Wrigley building in the morning
Just never get tired of this view	nice park along the river	Sears tower on the left	the beginning of the BP Bridge into Millennium Park
The bridge snakes back and forth, very enjoyable	Giving you great perspectives on the city	and the pavilion	See?
That red building is really a strange color	Looks like a UFO landing	Just can't take enough photos of the tulips	So you think the Art Institute of Chicago just has great impressionist pictures?
that's some Budda; imagine all the hands that touched the legs even before I came into the museum	nice!	Chess set by Man Ray	Egyptian Bird
Plaza next to the institute	Nice place to sit and have a nosh	Art is the park -- at least 200 different artists all showing their paintings, sculpture, and whatever in a huge tent thing	The famous fountain; just turned on that morning
And looking back to the lake	There were two wedding parties taking photos around the fountain	The train tracks run right under the institute	Marshall Fields -- looking up
and looking down.	And looking WAY up in another atrium in the same store.	Dessert! That's spun sugar that felt like eating glass!!	So I walked out the next morning and look what I stumbled across!!
All the tv channels were there	A parade!! All the Chicago police districts were represented	Marching Marching	Mounted police
A church with vivid blue ribbons on the trees out front	The light fixtures at the Drake hotel	The Hancock Building (not THAT one) on the left	The beach on the lakeshore again
The blue ribbons close up	the church courtyard	and fountain	The view from my room; 31st floor -- that window goes all the way to the floor
