Chicago

I'm a week late on this post, but last Thursday was the semi-annual Chicago trip for us Calder Kids. The bus ride  on the way there was enjoyable, nothing too exciting. When we arrived in the Windy city, the weather was beautiful. A lot of other classmates and students went to the expo at Navy Pier, but unfortunately I did not want to spend the money to get in there. 

 We walked around the city a bit, just taking in the sites around us. We ended up at the Art Institute of Chicago. We went directly to the modern wing to check out everything that has happened most recent in our lives. Everything was so spectacular. 

My favorite, of course was when we visited the Impressionist section of the museum. I found Toulouse-Lautrec and just fell in love as I always do. I'm not sure why, but I always love his works. Especially in the main Moulin Rouge piece, the woman's face is so illuminated with green.
