The streets from our hotel to the "museum" were closed for a parade that winded-through the downtown area. We didn't see any of the parade, but there were plenty of people-watching to be done. Our trek was easily navigated without any car traffic, too!
Located inside (and, way up high on the roof) of an old St. Louis shoe factory!
Looks calm & tranquil, right?
Not hardly!
Yes, kids load-up and get to sit behind the steering wheel
(and open the door, of course)
We couldn't tell the bus was hanging-over the edge from
inside the bus. When the discovery was made...
Well, it's one of the more subtle experiences
that the City Museum offers.
It's the ball pit of minor miracles.
-DJ lost a small toy, Turbo, from the upcoming movie.
After discovering Turbo the Snail was missing, we started
planning a trip to Target to buy a new one.
planning a trip to Target to buy a new one.
It would cost an extra $10 to re-park the car at
the hotel (and another $6 for the toy).
$16 to relieve some sadness would be
money well spent.
But, the boy had another idea.
"I'm going back in."
"I'm going to find Turbo."
True, a friend should never get left behind.
However, there are times when a person must
be accepting of certain impossibilities.
Too many balls, too little time.
The original Turbo would have to be replaced.
Davis was allowed no more than 5 minutes
to attempt to rescue Turbo from the ball pit.
After 3 minutes, "Found him!"
