I am going to Chicago with my sister and cousin in early October. We'd like to bring some sandwiches and have a picnic near Buckingham Fountain. Are there any grassy areas near by were we can lay down a blanket? Any other suggestions for somewhere in the city where we can have a nice picnic? We plan on parking at Navy Pier and then making our way around the city from there. We've already done the Sears tower, millenium park and shedd aquarium on previous trips.|||Picnics are still allowed. Another place to spend a nice day and not spend a lot of money is Lincoln Park. It's a huge park with a free zoo, nearby Peggy Notebart Butterfly-Haven Museum, Chicago History Museum and Lincoln Park Conservatory: http://www.lincolnparkchicagorealestate.鈥?/a> There is street parking and a lot adjacent to the zoo to the east. You can also take the CTA from Navy Pier...bus #65 to Grand & Rush, transfer to the #151 to the zoo's gate.|||Grant Park, where Buckingham Fountain is located, is just what you are looking for...
