An Evening at Navy Pier

A little less than a month ago, Sandra and I journeyed to one of Chicago's biggest attractions, Navy Pier. Our destination was the IMAX theater, but the movie we wanted to see was already sold out, so we decided to wander outside on the pier.

Being together, we couldn't escape the lure of the Ferris wheel and decided to take a spin.

I couldn't resist taking a few snapshots of Sandra:

It was so pleasant outside. The light struck everything gorgeously and I caught a few neat images of the downtown buildings, sky, and pier.

A cool crescent moon also hung in the sky.

We sat down and soaked in the atmosphere. The air was invitingly cool. We shared a beer and watched the boats coming from the lake to dock for the night.

Yes, a very pretty evening...
