ABC Wednesday F is for fountain
It is ABC Wednesday hosted by Denise. Please stop and visit ABC around the world..... This is a fountain at McCormick Place in Chicago. McCormick Place is one of the sites that would be used if Chicago wins the bid for the 2016 Summer Olympics.
It never ceases to amaze me how inventive people are with fountains. I love the classical type, with the stone or concrete pond and the statue or raised central basin and jets - but modern fountains like these can be quite enchanting!
I love that fountain and all the arching from one spot to another. When My Hubby and I did conventions and trade shows there we were always fascinated by it.
BEAUTIFUL!
