Over the next few days I’m going to be posting various pictures from our Chicago family trip. We had a great 4 day trip. It was long enough to see a few things, but more than enough time in the “big city” for me. These images are from the Museum of Science and Industry. This was one of our favorite places. There was so many cool things to do here. We got to learn about a lot of different storms, transportation (air and rail), dissect an owl pellet (we found a lot of mouse bones), see a U-boat, and many other things. I highly recommend the Museum of Science and Industry, you won’t be disappointed.
I’ll be following up this post with posts and pictures from the Shedd Aquarium, pictures around Chicago, and family fun pictures. I’m not sure they’ll be in that order, but there will be three more posts after this one. Stay tuned!

- This demo had a pitot tube in it. The black thing Izzy is holding onto had air running through it at different speeds. I told her about the science fair project that I did and I used a pitot tube and me and Dad running down the interstate at different speeds to watch it work.
