Lincoln Park Zoo | Lincoln Park Conservatory

In Chicago, Family July 6, 2016

Today the kids and I started our day at the newly opened The Bakery at Fat Rice. Afterwards we went to Longman & Eagle and talked about how good the breakfast potatoes were for about 13 minutes. Following lunch, we saw the newborn Grevy’s zebra at Lincoln Park Zoo, saw some flowers at the Lincoln Park Conservatory, bought a bench for the garden that nobody will ever sit on, then went home.
