You can sum up my Chicago trip (and probably my life) with this picture.
I stood like this for so long. I didn't say anything just stood there and stared at this polar bear. It was fantastic. I'm pretty sure the polar bear knew how much I loved them. People kept coming and going with their small children and I still just stood there. I even started crying at one point.
This is when the polar bear wanted to hold my hand.
If you are in Chicago anytime soon, I highly suggest going to the Lincoln Park zoo and hanging out with the polar bear.
