'The Bean'...

MONDAY NOVEMBER 2 At the top of my Must See List was "The Bean". Apparently I'm not the only one that calls it that, but it's official name is Cloud Gate (which I just learned today, Thanks Wikipedia!) The famous Chicago sculpture is a popular tourist destination and a photo taking lover's dream. It is also located in Millennium Park. I'm glad I got to check it off the list before the sun went down. This is such a creative artistic city.









FUN FACT:
It is made up of 168 plates of stainless steel welded together.
It's highly polished exterior has no visible seems.
