St. Louis trip

We just got back from St. Louis where we saw some sights (sites? it seems that either makes sense) and visited with our friends, the Murrays.

Mason points the way to the Gateway Arch.



The nice lady didn't get very close to take this picture.



We didn't go up in the tram. Probably a good thing. Mason didn't handle sitting in the demonstration one very well.





Aaaahhhh, look out above you!



It was over 95 degrees that day, and the kids were a little cross with us by the time we stopped for lunch.



They quickly relaxed in the AC.



We stayed at a nice hotel that was run by idiots (long story). We just have a few picture enjoying the hotel AC.





On Sunday morning, we went to the highly recommended St. Louis Zoo. I think the heat was affecting our enjoyment.





(This is Bridget, by the way.)



We went on a train ride which helped cool us off, though we didn't see many animals. The tunnels were neat.





The best part was the penguin area because it was very cool inside and you can get very close to the penguins.



I may get another job as a wildlife videographer.
