From the giant gargoyles towering over the Harold Washington Library to the undersea
world, the concrete canyons harbour many creatures.
Smile at the baby-faced belugas at the John G Shedd Aquarium. Laugh at the
non-stop bachelor party hosted by the male gorillas at Lincoln Park Zoo, and
outstare the brown bears at Brookfield Zoo. Be astounded by the giant,
65-million-year-old ‘Sue', the nearly complete Tyrannosaurus Rex
skeleton at The Field Museum.

The Chicago Cubs have not won a World Series since 1908, yet their fans are
ever hopeful. Their ground, Wrigley Field, is one of the oldest in the
country. Games are always sold out so it takes big bucks to see what the fuss is
about.
