B is for Bean


Five years ago hubby and I went to Chicago to change the name in my passport. The building where the office was located was just right across the Mellinium park. After we gave the necessary papers we have to wait for another few hours and so we decided to ate somewhere and strolled the park. That is when I discovered this so called the Bean. As I look at it closely I am so amazed by how they made it here are the pictures.

I was in Chicago for the very first time a couple years ago, saw the Bean, I believe, but only at a distance. Will need to check it out again.

Very cool structure. I haven't been to Chicago in ages. This would be one good reason to go.
