Chicago – Part 3

We ate at a lot of great restaurants in Chicago! At one called Cupitol they had a bulletin board with photos of people’s pups that came with them to the restaurant! I am a Tiger I was not eligible for a photo here, drat. They should have another bulletin board for TIGERS!
One day we went to a beach! This is the Ohio Street Beach and it is right downtown. Mom and Auntie Darcy wanted to go swimming but did not have swimsuits with them so they went swimming in their underwear!!! Ha ha ha that was so funny! They decided that undies were not much different than bikinis and there were not many people at the beach anyway. There were only about 10,000 people who could see them from the office buildings and condos that surround the beach! Here is a picture of me at the beach. They did not want a picture posted of them in their undies!
I wanted to tell you more about The Bean! One day when we were visiting mom looked around at the people from all over the world who came to see this great sculpture and said that it would be fun if we could get everyone to hold hands and make a big circle around The Bean. It would mean that people would have to be willing to hold hands with strangers, and to understand the goal just by looking. A few days later we tried it!
It was so awesome! Auntie Darcy recruited a few people to get it started, and then people understood almost immediately what was happening and joined in! It only took a couple of minutes and we had a complete ring! What was extra special is that there were some men there making a video and they got it on film! Here is the link to the video! https://www.youtube.com/shorts/pSxG-P8EGZw
A little later on Auntie Darcy was talking to a security guard who mentioned that over their security radios they had heard about a gathering, then a disturbance at The Bean! Ha ha ha that was us making a disturbance by holding hands! Between swimming in underwear and holding hands with strangers it is lucky we did not get into any trouble with security while we visited Chicago!
