20 Years Later!
I chose a two room suite at the 21c Museum Hotel. A converted YMCA a few blocks away from where our friends were to be married. The former basketball court now houses a rotating gallery of contemporary art.
We had some nice city views from our living room on the top floor.
We had our first meal at the Coffeehouse/Bistro called Good Press. The ceiling had some vibrant designs.
The next day, we visited Gateway Arch National Park and spent a little time walking around.
One of those sights that needs to be seen in person to grasp the concept of just how massive a structure it really is.
We visited Ballpark Village for lunch and a Cardinals game was taking place. We were able to watch it on a screen and hear the announcer loud and clear. Occasional roars from the crowd while we ate local Bar-B-Que.
The next day, we attended our friends wedding at the City Museum, and stayed up all night singing Karaoke songs in the West End on the Delmar Loop. Everyone had a blast.
Finally, a visit to St. Louis would not be complete without seeing the St. Louis Zoo and the St. Louis Botanical Gardens. Both were outstanding.
Four Days were just barely enough time to savor the experience, but I hope to return someday. New friends and memories were made, and the weather was picture perfect.
