Unique Fun in St Louis

We left MI early on Saturday morning and reached our destination St Louis in the mid afternoon. The boys, 'exhausted' from travel plopped down on the hotel bed and watched TV while Bob rested a bit. After a quick dinner, we headed to the City Museum for some fun, and some fun we had.  Not an ordinary museum in the typical sense of museum but rather an enormous interactive playground for young and young at heart. We climbed, shimmed, slid, and crouched throw tunnels, underground passages, slides and stairs - all constructed out of re-purposed materials in this former shoe factory building. Half way through we took a quick drink break and also watched a juggler perform, enough to rejuvenate everyone for some more fun and run. The evening ended with a bag of mini donuts, the last sugar rush of the evening. Everyone slept well that night - a perfect antidote to too many hours in a car. 
In celebration of Christmas the museum was giving out free hats, so Lukas and Noah are now the proud owners of some fancy head gear.
