has enclosed balconies with glass floors,where visitors can stand and look straightdown at the street below.

For private viewing from aloft, book aroom at the Four Seasons Chicago, whichhas the city’s highest hotel rooms, on the46th floor. Or, rent a condominium in aChicago high-rise which offers spectacularviews of the city and Lake Michigan.

Dinos and DynastiesMeet Sue, the largest, most complete and

best-preserved Tyrannosaurus rex fossil everdiscovered, at the Field Museum of NaturalHistory at Chicago’s lakefront Museum Cam-pus. See more dinosaurs and flying reptiles inthe Evolving Planet exhibit. Then, enter a re-

constructed tomb with human andanimal mummies to learn about lifein Ancient Egypt. There’s much moreto see, so plan on spending the day.

In and On the WaterNext door to the Field Museum is

Shedd Aquarium, which offers aclose-up look at piranhas, snakesand stingrays of the Amazon, sharks

from the Caribbean, beluga whales from thePacific Northwest coast and much more. Spe-cial programs include Trainer for a Day,

minutes or so the face changes and watersprays out of the person’s mouth – a moderntwist on the classical fountains of ancientRome.

Birds-eye ViewsFor a spectacular overview of Chicago,

get high – really high – in a downtown sky-scraper.

The John Hancock Observa-tory, on the 94th floor, has anopen-air Sky Walk with a stainless steelscreen and Chicago’s highest café, featuringfloor to ceiling windows. The Willis (formerlySears) Tower Skydeck, onthe 103rd floor of the tallestbuilding in North America,

ou’re at a place that is real, that has real stories,real traditions and real people whom you can

meet, and who can become a part of your life. ... Wehad this amazing opportunity at Aulani with the unbelievable beauty and rich culture of Hawaii to do

our job in a way that is authentically Hawaiian, but atthe same time authentically Disney.”

– Joe Rohde, Walt Disney Imagineering senior vice president and lead designer on Aulani.

Aulani, Disney’s Hawaiian paradise on Oahu’s21-acre oceanfront Waikolohe Valley, perfectlyblends the nuances of Disney with the story of an indigenous culture – the Hawaiian

culture.This unique combination was achieved

by Disney Imagineers who consulted withHawaiian cultural experts, local artisans and

historians to create a meaningful resort thatembodies the spirit of the Hawaiian people.

Aulani, which means a messenger of achief, lays claim to celebrating Hawaii’s spirit and culturewith Walt Disney’s original vision for Disneyland – to create a place where families can have fun together.

Yes, you’ll feel the Disney magic all around you and see Mickey and Minnie Mouse, Donald Duck, Goofy andother Disney characters. But you will also feel Hawaii’sown magic that is permeated in every layer of the resort.

“If you stop, if you wait, if you look, something is going to happen,” Rohde added. “That’s the feeling youget here at Aulani.”

Art and ArchitectureAulani is the first resort tower in the Hawaiian Islands

to pay homage to Hawaiian architecture and symbols. All

The best of Hawaii done Disney’s way.

Editor’s Tip:Who doesn’t want a picturewith Mickey, Minnie, Donaldand other Disney characters.Check their schedule and arrive early.
