Last week, I went to St. Louis with my sister and bro-in-law. It was possibly the best/cheapest day trip I've ever ventured.

We first stopped by the Budweiser Brewery to start off our mini-vacation right. I highly recommend it for anyone who is over 21. It is a very clean and beautifully decorated. Best of all, it was free. Everything was free. Free tickets for the tour, and two free "samples" of beer. I say "samples" because it was a pretty generous amount. However, St. Louis won me over on a different attraction. I don't want to give away too much about this one particular place, because part of the magic is going there yourself and making discoveries, but City Museum is perhaps the most wonderful place in the world.

Of course, I had to visit the Arch, which only made me think of and miss Athens. But I think the coolest part about the Arch were the pods! And it definitely helped that I got to sit next to this gorgeous guy in that tiny capsule. I wanted to take pictures of him, but decided it was definitely creepy :D 

And some of the pictures in here are of Chicago when I got back but thought it was worth sharing. 

Thanks for joining in!
