Well I'll be. My boys just went there for a Boy Scout spring trip. I was supposed to go, but ended up in trial instead. I was distracted and must not have been paying attention to exactly what it was they were doing. They must have visited the sub and Navy Pier on the same day. I assumed they were in the same place.

They did, however, report loving the Jelly Belly factory, Navy Pier, the train into downtown (yes, they got off at the wrong stop once, but had only a small and relatively tame adventure) the museums and Pizza Uno. When they get older they'll find Rush Street.
