Another one bites the dust

On the weekend we went and visited The Field Museum in downtown Chicago. Got to see the world's most complete T-Rex skeleton (not to mention the largest) - which has been named "Sue". Seeing paleantologists at work dusting off fossils on the other side of glass windows was interesting - but do they feel like they are in zoo themselves? We saw the Jacqueline Kennedy exhibition, which was overcrowded, hot, and something that toddlers don't enjoy even if their parents do. And what museum is complete without their own McDonald's restaurant, situated right next to the ancient Egypt exhibit?

That's one less thing left to do before we leave Chicago and come home...
