Walking Along the Chicago River

We're very fortunate enough to live near the Chicago River, which cuts through the center of downtown, one of the city's prettiest attractions!

The other day, as Kobe and I went on our evening walk, he literally tugged me along towards Lower Wacker drive (where scenes from the Dark Knight was filmed!). I never venture out that way, it's underneath a bridge and who knows what kind of things can happen if we head under there on our own, however, I was actually pleasantly surprised to see that there's a shortcut underneath the bridge that opens up to the Chicago River! Kobe was serving as my tour guide that night! There's also a security guard sitting near the opening, so I felt comfortable heading that way, no need to be nervous.

Kobe sat right on one of the docking steps and posed for the camera. He's becoming a natural in front of the camera, don't you think? :)
