Crazy Letters

Foo was trying to figure out what kind of word game this was were you stack up a bunch of letters and numbers and hope they don't fall. Maybe it was some form of Jenga. He loves Jenga!

Ring His Bell

Foo just loves bells because they go ding... dong... ding... dong... which then reminds him of HOstess treats... mmmmm... But this one was special because it was an Illinois bell, or part of a ship that had been named Illinois.... whatever.

Grand Prize Game

Foo was super excited when he suddenly found himself at Bozo's Circus! He jumped up and down and up and down, so ready to play the Bozo Buckets with his favorite clown, Bozo! But try as he might, he couldn't make it past the first bucket... He has short arms after all!

Arm Chair Artistry

Foo wanted to sit in this chair, but the creepy purple babies made him nervous, as did the dog who apparently somebody had sat on. He looked a little flat.

Art of the Sitting

Foo just had to join these crazy looking people on this painted couch he found in his travels. He thought he fit in just fine with them all, but he kinda wanted to eat those eggs.

When he went over to try one, he found a little kitty sleeping on the couch and it reminded him of his kitty friends back home who love to snuggle with him. Foo offered the kitty some of the eggs, but she kept on sleeping and sleeping and sleeping.

Like Mike

Foo just couldn't resist getting a photo with the stained-glass Michael Jordan. Even in bright colors of fragile pretty, Michael still is the best basketball player ever. 

Wherefore Art Thou Foo-meo?

When Foo found Lady Juliet out roaming in the garden, he instantly fell in love with her and kissed her feet, hoping she would love him back.

Luckily as the sun shone down, she smiled her favor upon him and hugs ensued. Still, since Foo knew her history of accidentally sending her lovers to the grave, Foo quickly went on his merry way but promised he would write.

Save Ferris

It is Chicago after all, the home of Ferris Buehller. And even if this isn't the same kind of Ferris, it's still cool. Foo thought it looked wheely cool.

City Scape

Some of the best views of the Chicago skyline are out on the lake itself, so Foo took advantage of his visit of Navy Pier to show just that. In spite of the cloudy day, doesn't downtown look fabulous?







And Foo just couldn't resist the northern view of the city either. Aren't those buildings just so pretty?

Canoe Tell Me Why?

Foo wasn't certain why someone had crashed all of these canoes together. He heard it was art, but maybe it was just an accident. Some tidal wave from the lake!

Foo Gets a Newhart

Foo was just wandering around Navy Pier when he came across this nifty guy just sitting on this not-so-comfy metal chair. Foo decided to see what all the fuss was about and sat on the couch next to him.

That's when he realized it was the famous Bob Newhart! Foo was so excited, he started telling Bob all about his life and his adventures all over the place.

At one point Foo got so excited, he jumped from the couch over to Bob's chair. Bob was a little nervous at first, not sure if Foo was friend or foe.

But eventually, Bob saw that Foo was just there to have fun and enjoy his time in Chicago. They ended up snuggling and cuddling like old friends, and Foo even got this souvenir photograph!

Bubba Gump

Foo was fascinated when he met this gigantic shrimp man at Navy Pier just hanging out and taking photos with people. But all hell broke loose when the shrimp ran off with Foo. He'd been shrimp-napped!

Luckily Foo and the shrimp ran into Foo's old friend Forrest and after much deliberation, Forrest managed to get Foo back. All of them laughed and smiled about it in the end.

He Went to Garrett's

Foo was so delighted to get a chance to buy and eat the most fabulous popcorn and caramel corn around at Garrett's. By far his favorite is the Chicago Mix: Cheddar popcorn and Caramel all mixed together. Mmm salty sweet perfection!

Even better, he got to see how they used to make it the old fashioned way. They wouldn't let him jump in the machine though, but that was probably all for the best.

Happy Chef

Is a happy chef a good sign or a bad sign? It could mean that he's pleased with his dish, or it could mean he's not paying attention and then it will be bad. Foo was hoping for the first one because he was hungry!

Pier Closer

Foo just couldn't visit Chicago without a trip to Navy Pier. There's always so much to see and do, but he's pretty sure they got the color wrong. It doesn't look all that navy.
