Thanks for all your posts.
We tried to get a bus from Michigan Avenue to MOSI but was told by our hotel that it did not run on a Thursday & to get a cab.
Needless to say we bought a day ticket & took the advice posted here and reached the museum for a fraction of the cost, using the pass later to go to Navy Pier.
We managed to do The Adler Planitarium by bus the following day before our departure for ORD.
CTA staff are so friendly & helpful and, yes, it's an easy system to use.

I never understand hotel staff who are ignorant of/lie about public transportation schedules. I was at a Hong Kong hotel last year & asked the concierge which bus route would take me to Stanley Market via the mountain route (rather than through the tunnel). He looked at me like I was crazy and told me that route hadn't existed for years. Only after I got to Stanley Market & turned around to head back did I discover that there are several bus routes that go over the mountain.
