A trip to St. Louis

Friday, we took off after work and went to St. Louis. I went to Priceline.com and booked a room at the Marriott at Union Station for $50. YES $50 ! (plus tax and parking for a total of $79.19) We got there later that I wanted so Union station was closed for the evening. The next morning we went to the City Museum.

Bed was GREAT!

We got to the City Museum early, so the nice gentleman that charged us $5 to park told us we could walk down a couple of blocks and eat at a nice, inexpensive little place. It was really neat. It had all mix and matched table and chairs and they had a GREAT Breakfast buffet.

This is the outside of the City Museum.

We decided to take a break and play with some clay. MESSY but fun!

After the City Museum (Which was a GREAT place to go and the kids had a blast) we drove down to the river front to see the river and that Arch. We ate at the Old Spaghetti Factory. The we went on to the Museum of Transportation. Our next stop was to the airport to see some planes take off. We then headed back home but had to stop in Vandalia and eat, Oh and we had to stop at Bluff Equipment just to check stuff out! We had a great trip. It was nice to get out of Jasper county for more than a few hours ;)
