This is from our mini vacation to St Louis. I won tickets from 93.9 The Song radio station for a one night stay at the Clayton on the Park Hotel. The package included a 1-night stay in a 2-bedroom suite, $75.00 towards dinner and 4 tickets to the Magic House, the children's museum. We arrived Saturday evening and went to the City Museum after dinner. On Sunday we went to Grant's Farm and then to the Arch before going to dinner at McGurdy's Irish pub. On Monday, we went to the Magic House, then went to the zoo. We went to the Outback for dinner. We came home Tuesday morning. We had a wonderful time together.

On Saturday evening, we went to the City Museum. It is an old shoe factory that has been transformed into an interactive museum, using recycled stuff. We had a great time there.

On Sunday Morning, we went to see Grant's Farm. There was quite a variety of animals there. It is also where the Budweiser Clydesdale Stables are.
