Going on a trip to the city to observe is much different than going downtown for just leisure. I noticed many more things on this trip than I have in my previous visits to the city. The two places my group visited was the Harold Washington Library and the Museum Campus. I have been past the library multiple times, but this was the first time I went inside. To be honest, I did not expect the inside of the library to be so nice. It had nine levels, and the inside looked very elegant. Each level was full of people of all kinds. There was everyone from fancy looking business men to homeless with all of there possessions.
The second place we went to was the Museum Campus. I have been around there multiple times, but it was interesting to see all of the new sculptures around. In this area, it is very evident that Chicago values art and culture. The sculptures around there were each of a globe, but each globe was decorated in different ways to show different cultures perceptions of the world. It was also very interesting to see the view of the city from where the Museum Campus was.
This was a very fun trip, and a great way to view the city in a different light.

Going into the city as an observer, rather than a tourist can be a new experience. I'm happy you were able to see it in a new light!
