I should print them and put them all in our vacation folder. I haven't been to St. Louis since I was a kid visiting my great-grandfather. The arch was so fascinating to kids from Alaska who had never seen such a thing. <BR/><BR/>At the end of May we are headed to Minneapolis and South Dakota (Mt. Rushmore, the Badlands etc.) and would love to hear what are things that we shouldn't miss in these areas. And also some great kid friendly activities would be fantastic. If anyone can post travel suggestions that would be so great!<BR/><BR/>Thanks for doing this Michelle! What a great idea!Tamarahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06829330814654158050noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-14194867.post-25966640832486704292009-03-19T10:51:00.000-08:002009-03-19T10:51:00.000-08:00I went to St. Louis in 1993 or so.

It's a lot like launching yourself out into space. I was completely freaked.Janethttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02190489990653412687noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-14194867.post-89587664684899174842009-03-19T08:45:00.000-08:002009-03-19T08:45:00.000-08:00Mmmm...

I live around 65 miles from St. Louis and have for most of my life. Kathy is right! There is something for everyone in St. Louis. <BR/><BR/>Our favorite spots are City Museum, where I love to take photos, the Zoo and The Botanical Gardens.Michaellehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06024128529492480852noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-14194867.post-49547168361422327062009-03-17T15:37:00.000-08:002009-03-17T15:37:00.000-08:00I love this post!

I think it's the best zoo. The Arch is another great attraction. I've been to the the top and what a great view! Grant's Farm is another family favorite. If I ever get to visit St Louis again those three will definitely be on the list. We used to go down to the Illinois side of the river to watch the fireworks on the Fourth of July. Best Ever!bluecathttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13603707984944473227noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-14194867.post-13545519241549711602009-03-17T15:21:00.000-08:002009-03-17T15:21:00.000-08:00I didn't know there was so many things to do there...I didn't know there was so many things to do there, I've never been there but is sounds like a great place.

I used to pick out my dad's work (Ralston Purina - now Nestle-Purina)and the old pop bottle cap shaped stadium from the top of the Arch. STL is a special place, and all the places she mentioned are wonderful. What is really amazing are all the free places to take kiddos, and I have to say that the STL zoo is far better than many high priced zoos I have visited. STL had the best field trips when I was teaching, and it is a great family friendly town.Inklinghttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02775312085301951675noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-14194867.post-88165532866739332732009-03-17T04:54:00.000-08:002009-03-17T04:54:00.000-08:00This is home for me!
