St Louis

After passing the St Louis arch several times on tour, we were finally able to stop there. John, Q, Sue, Mikey, Colin, and I took advantage of the stop and went up in the arch. We got into the tram which looked a lot like a space pod. It was pretty neat watching as we made our way up the arch. Luckily we didn't have to walk up to the top(We'd have to go up over 1,000 steps!) At the top we were able to look out over the Mississippi River on one side and saw the St Louis Cardinals stadium out the other. We were so happy to be able to see another amazing landmark.
We headed to Columbia MO where we enjoyed a night off. We had dinner at the sports bar and just went back to our room and relaxed. We were able to sleep in the next morning, check out some of the presidential inauguration and then went across the street to the mall for some shopping and dinner. The cast performed at the University of Missouri tonight before an amazing audience. The seemed to absolutely love the show.
Tomorrow we head to Burlington IA for another one nighter.
