Chicago Live Cam

Arrive in the Chicago suburbs, meet your Visit Chicago guide at the Wyndham Garden Hotel. Reassemble in the lobby then depart for the shores of Lake Michigan and the amazing John G. Shedd Aquarium. Your first stop at "The Big Blue", is likely to be the Tropical Choral Reef that's enclosed in a 90,000 gallon tank containing 350 species of tropical fish, but the principal attraction is the spectacular Oceanarium. There, in a painstakingly recreated Pacific Northwest ecosystem, you can watch dolphins, penguins and Beluga whales frolic above and below the surface from literally inches away. Don't miss the dolphin show at 4:30 pm; it's going to be one of the highlights of your entire trip).
