We took a little vacation to St. Louis during our spring break a few weeks ago. We drove up on Tuesday morning and went to the St. Louis Zoo that afternoon. We had never been to that zoo before and it was a lot of fun. It's quite big, especially compared to the zoo in Springfield! It was a chilly day, so some of the animals weren't out and about. We did really enjoy watching the camels! They had some funny expressions going on!
The girls were REALLY excited to stay at a hotel and I think they would have been just as satisfied to stay at a hotel in Springfield instead of driving a bit to stay in one! Our hotel at a pool, so Ross and the girls went swimming one night....along with every other hotel guest. ;).
Wednesday morning we went up in the Arch! This was my favorite of the whole trip and am so thankful that the rain held off for us so we could get a good look out of the Arch when up in it and were able to walk around the riverfront, too. I think the girls really enjoyed the Arch and thought it was pretty neat!
Thursday morning we went to the Science Center and had a good time! They had several interactive exhibits that surprisingly and thankfully were all open! We had some fun in their game room and you can watch Lucy and Ross play Super Mario Brothers here! We watched a 15-minute weather presentation that was very neat and informative.
It was only 2 1/2 days, but it was nice to get away and show the girls some new sights! Now we are looking forward to our Florida vacation this June!
