ChiIL Tips: Go on a Wednesday or Saturday night and catch a free Navy Pier fireworks show every week! We also recommend buying the glossy, photo filled program. The performers will sign it after the show and it'll be a fun keepsake for the kids to reminisce over.
As many times as we've seen the motorcycles and the globe of doom, my kids still love it and my daughter is always jazzed to see the girl among them. She's an inspiration and a great role model of rockin' grrrrl power, and the spark for my child's enduring obsession with motorcycles.
