St. Louis--arch

It started to rain as we were leaving the zoo.  The girls really wanted to see the arch and we really wanted to take them because I remember that being one of my favorite things Jeff and I did when we came out a long time ago.  We decided to have a quick lunch since it was raining anyway.  The rain would not let up.  We went and parked at the arch, but it's a 15 minute walk to actually get to the arch.  We tried to brave it out, but it was a serious downpour and the girls were getting soaked!  Finally we told them to run in front of the clock tower and we would take their picture with the arch behind them.  It was pretty funny actually.  We were sad we didn't get to show them more of it.  We will definitely have to come back.
