shedd aquarium: My friend is taking me downtown to celebrate my 17th birthday! What should i do thats fairly cheap? Places like The Shedd Aquarium or a museum or navy pier. Just something, i cant decide!!!|||Navy Pier might still be kind of chilly depending on the weather, and the Aquarium and museums aren't cheap ( unless that's all your going to do) I'd go to Grant park and see the egg scupture thing thats there ( it's pretty cool) go thru Macy's ( that used to be the old Marshall Fields) hike up across the river, go thru Watertower Place, go have hot chocolate at the Gheradelli chocolate store, stop in the Disney store... eat someplace nice. Have fun, Happy Birthday!|||omg, im going to chicago tomorrow, and im almost 17!! thats weird-- happy birthday. when ever i go there, i just walk around and have fun talking to my friends and just walk down random streets till you find something that looks interesting. navy pier is always fun, you should go on the ferris wheel- i gives you alot of free time to talk, and you can take funny random pictures overlooking the city while contained on the little ferris wheel cart. any of the museums are fun to go to- it just depends what you are up to doing
