1) I was just too dang worn out by the end of the day
and
2) The wifi was pretty spotty at the hotel so trying to blog was a painful process
So, instead I decided to wait until I got home to tell more about my experiences.
Wednesday afternoon after settling in at my hotel, I took the opportunity to wander around a bit and find the Gateway Arch. Thank goodness for Google Maps or who knows where I would have ended up???
WOW! It was utterly breath-taking!
There was a lot of construction going on around the Arch and I wasn't entirely sure how to get across the street and to the park, so I actually just admired it from across the street. Here are a few photos for you to enjoy.
Here I am trying to take a selfie with the Arch! It was really windy and I'm not a great selfie-taker anyway.
Ahh! Here's the Arch all by itself.
On my way back, I stopped at a wonderful Irish Pub and Restaurant for a quick early dinner -- I was starving.
Loved the dark wood very masculine interior!
Had the Shepherd's Pie -- delish!
As I ambled back to the hotel after my lovely meal, I stopped to admire the architecture of the buildings. What lovely details and decorations. Lots of Art Deco and Art Nouveau.
Lewis and Clark!
Then it was back to the hotel to chill out and get ready for Thursday's Schoolhouse Sessions!
Read about Schoolhouse HERE. (Sorry, I wrote the first 2 blogs out of order....)
