Shedd Aquarium

Back at the beginning of December when M moved to Chicago (ohmygosh that was over a month ago) we visited the Shedd Aquarium. This is one of the most popular tourist attractions in Chicago and the day we went was fairly busy but not crazy.

I'll leave you mostly with pictures (some are mine and some I found on ze internets) because I'm not in a talkative mood tonight.
A dolphin show! picture source
A nice, colourful coral reef.
Biggest bullfrog I've ever seen!
Cute eels that kept popping in and out of the sand. picture source
At $25US per person, it's a tad bit pricey, but definitely worth the trip at least once!
