St. Louis - Day of the Arch

Day three of being in St. Louis was a success! Pretty much the entire day was dedicated to the gateway arch! We first walked right over to the arch and into the secret museum! Dad, Katelyn and I all went up in the tiny capsule and to the top of the arch! Mom stayed down on solid ground. It's not that dangerous! It only sways about 18 inches during strong wind! That's safe, right?

Speaking of which, we all took some pictures! Enjoy:

Katelyn is happily frolicking through the grasses.


She also bought a new shirt in the gift shop!


Katelyn and I are standing in front of the massive structure.


Mom is taking a picture of dad taking a picture of me taking a picture of the arch.


Dad sure seems happy to be here!


Why not?! Why can't I bungee jump from there?!


All we need is a supersize hamster wheel and she could power our house!


Dad, Katelyn, and Mom had fun on the riverboat. I took a nap.


Katelyn likes to take pictures on the arch.


We are atop the arch and looking down below.


Awesome shadow that can only be seen from sky level!


Still can't see Six Flags . . .


Well, it's pretty obvious what we did today. That' s about all we did today! We did go swimming though, and almost missed dinner! Katelyn and I had the pool all to ourselves! Oh, and another thing! Since from the arch windows, you can clearly see our window, we all decided to put the giant box of Cheese Balls in our window to know which one was ours! Up in the arch, we could see them using the binoculars! All my idea. Not Mom's.

Well, I'm dreading tomorrow because tomorrow's our last day. Even so, it will be nice to get back to school. Not.
