Chicago
In March 2000, the Singing Quakers went to Chicago for Spring Break. This was my first time to Chicago and although I didn't get to see quite as much as I liked, it was still a fun trip.
Our first stop on this trip was St. Louis, MO. While there, I got to see the "St. Louis Arch", although we didn't have time to go in it. Bummer.
Here is a picture of the Arch and the outside of Busch Stadium. Pretty cool picture. I took it while the bus was moving.
We also stopped by Northwestern University. We sang a concert on their campus. They have a beautiful chapel, but my pictures weren't very good of it.
We also visted Notre Dame...home of the fighting Irish. :)
While there, we explored the Notre Dame Basilica. It is very beautiful. Wish I could put all the pictures of it on here, but there is too many.
Just to get a taste, here is a picture of the ceiling. Awesome huh?
Of course, we can't forget "touch down" Jesus. This picture of Jesus can be seen above the football stadium. Everytime they make a touchdown, you can see Jesus in the background giving his approval. :)
Finally in Chicago, here is me playing the piano with my feet like in the movie "BIG." It was fun.
My third Hard Rock Cafe, down town Chicago. The service wasn't that great, but the food was good as always.
Here is the closest I got to the Sears Tower. Another thing I would have liked to have seen, but didn't have time to go in. Pretty good picture though. Looks like a postcard.
Here is the Field Museum. Now I did get to see this. While there, I got to see the Dead Sea Scrolls. That was a once in the life time oppurtunity. They were just tiny fragments of scrolls that had been pieced together again. Couldn't take a picure of those, obviously.
Last of all, here I am deep in an Egyptian tomb. They had a full sized tomb inside the museum. Took me forever to get out. :)
