Metra Magic
For Memorial Day we did something different. We went on an excursion to Chicago, but this time we traveled via commuter rails. AJ & Farrah had never ridden on the train before and now was the time to experience it. Any child under 11 and under, with a paying adult, was fare-free during the holiday weekend. We were on the 10:08 am stop, and were downtown by 11:20. We had intended to go to the Sears Tower (Willis Tower) or Lincoln Park Zoo, but ended up at Navy Pier: Chicago Children's Museum. We bought the one-year family pass.
