Winter Flower & Train Show 2011

I took my parents through the Winter Flower and Train Show at the Lincoln Park Conservatory this year.  My dad really liked the trains.


The tracks for three trains ran through a poinsettia "forest" and beside models of vintage Chicago buildings, such as the Shedd Aquarium and the Chicago Art Institute. 


Each building model was made of all-natural materials.  There were water features and bridges, as well. 


It was fun to walk through this very creative Christmas-themed setting in the historic Lincoln Park Conservatory.
Of course, there were stunning blooms throughout the rest of the Conservatory, especially in the orchid room.
