First stop: Chicago

My friend Marisa is also going on the trip to Spain and lives right outside Chicago. Therefore, as I have never seen the city before I thought this would be a great opportunity to do so before leaving for Spain together. We went to a White Sox vs. Red Sox game (they were conveniently playing while I was here even though I know nothing about baseball) and spent the day in Chicago walking around and then catching a play, despite the 45 degree weather. Here are some pictures from the city. I didn't take too many and the quality might not be so great because I was more focused on staying warm than taking good pictures. 

 

The bean 

Also there was this awesome water fountain (I'm not sure if that is what it should be called) with a man's face that looked like it was spitting out water
