Road Trip Day 2-3: Willis Tower, Ann Arbor, Mich.

Since I took fewer photos these last two days I'm combing the posts into one.  This post has more information on the trip and more photos =] 

The second day of our trip we went to the Willis Tower (Sears Tower) to see what it looked like from the Skydeck. We also went out on The Ledge, the glass boxes that jut out the side of the Willis Tower four feet, and got a better look of the street below. Some of us liked it more, Eric, while Lauren and I were a little scared at first, but it grew on us and was actually pretty cool.  It was definitely worth it. 

The rest of the day was filled with the drive from Chicago to Ann Arbor. 

The third day consisted of a small tour of the University of Michigan Ann Arbor, and watched one of Eric's friends perform some Cello music. Also, I put a couple photos from the first day in here that didn't make the first post.

Road Trip Pt. 1: Downtown Chicago

Yesterday my girlfriend, her brother and I started a road trip from Winona, Minn., to Ann Arbor, Mich., with a stop in Chicago.

Chicago was awesome. We walked around downtown, saw the bean, saw Navy Pier, the Art Institute of Chicago, and got some deep dish pizza from Giordano's, which was awesome.   

Today we're finishing the driving part and we'll end in Ann Arbor.

There's a lot of photos, which seems to be becoming a bit of a habit, thanks for looking.  =]
