Fresh Beat Band!

Annabelle and Mommy were so excited to see the Fresh Beat Band in Chicago. We drove 5.5 hours on Saturday to see them. We checked into our lovely hotel, which was literally one block from the concert. We got primped and ready, Belle with a new Elsa dress and all. I could see the theater's parking lot from the hotel and wondered why it was so empty at just a half hour before the show time, but chose to ignore the little warning bells. We walked over, and I was relieved to see the sign showing the correct day and time for our concert. But oddly, as we approached, doors were locked and there were hardly any people. We made our way to the ticket counter where they told us that the concert had been cancelled. What ?! What?! Belle was very gracious and big girl about it. She didn't cry or whine. So instead, we went back and swam in the hotel pool, had a carpet picnic in the hotel room and hung out till sleepy time. We made the best of it.

I couldn't leave Chicago though, without seeing something! So the next morning we went to the Skydeck at Willis Tower. It was good we got there early, because it was quickly filling up with people.
We enjoyed the views together. It was a good experience even though it wasn't what we had planned.
