an Album of Chicago Town
Summer, 1999
 
 
 
 
Chicago locates on the shore of Lake Michigan. And it is a sister city of Osaka. The size of the two is about the same. The atmosphere is also similar. But the color of the water of the lake is very different from that of Japanese leakes.It's very greenish. There is a beach in down town, Oak Street Beach! With skyscrapers back of you, you can enjoy sun bathing on the beach.
Chicago has many old beautiful buildings. The best of them is the Wrigley, I think, You can find it in the center of the picture.
Chicago is a big town, but if you travel for one hour by car, you find yourself in the midst of huge corn fields. In summer time in Town, farmer's Market is open every week. The farme rin the pidcture is holding a corn, of course!!
The art institute of Chicago has a lot of great art works in the world. The collection of 20th modern art is supreme. I like the paintingsof Impressionist School, but here I've learned a lot about American modern art. Remember! Tuesday is free day. You can enjoy great works for free on Tuesday.
 
 
"The el" means elevated train. Chicago is convenient for the travelers thanks for this public transportation.
Cows on Parade
You can find many types of painted cows on the streets downtown. Cows, cows, everywhere!!! But until the end of October, '99.
Sun flowers at farmer's market.
