A Moment of Relaxation



As the midsummer heat bears down, people seek solace in the water, enjoying a moment of relaxation while flags flap gently on either side of the street. Upon returning from their waterborne excursion, the bright lights of downtown buildings pierce the darkness.



Navy pier is the hub of both recreational activities and transportation that begin on the lake. From high-speed powerboats to convenient water taxis and luxurious cruise ships, there are plenty of options to beat the summer heat and have fun. As the night sky glitters with stars, the lights from various sources greet us on the way back.
