More Millennium Park

Venetia had been to Chicago, but not since Millenium Park had opened, so we showed her the Pritzker Pavilion and then the Crown Fountains. I love the Pritzker for the free outdoor music performances that I attended when I lived in Chicago.

The Crown Fountain is a great example of interactive public art. The two towers show faces of people, and then timed to the facial expressions, water shoots out. It's a space that many different people, tourists and locals, come to enjoy. Being a fountain, parents bring their children to enjoy the water, particularly on warm summer days.

I snapped this photo of Sandra's father looking at one of the fountain towers:
