John Hancock

We can see the John Hancock tower from our bus stop, and Felix was becoming very curious about it. A month ago he would say, at least once a day, "It would be really, really fun to go all the way to the top of the John Hancock!"and "You can't believe the John Hancock is really, really tall!"
Imagine the excitement when we told him that we would take him to the observatory. "We are going all the way to the 94th floor!" When we got off the elevator and went to the south windows Felix saw the Sears Tower and said, "Look! There's another John Hancock!" We'll take him to Sears some day but for now J.H. is still his favorite skyscraper. I took him back last Friday when he had the day off school. We were the last to get on an full elevator of tourists who apparently thought the elevator would automatically go to the observatory. Luckily Felix knew better and reached up high to select the button which read "94th floor observatory".
