Good Adult Fun

All along our road trip, when Caton and I were outlining our future stops, everyone we met who was in anyway associated with St. Louis was extremely excited about us visiting the city. They all thought it was completely insane that we planned on visiting the city in just one day and each person expressed a responsibility they felt to make sure our trip was perfect.

One recurring recommendation was to visit the City Hall Museum. One person told us, It's something you can only do in St. Louis.
And then when we were at lunch in St. Louis we asked our waiter if we should spend the afternoon at the zoo (which is free) or go to the City Museum.
Waiter: Oh, definitely the City Museum. My girlfriend and I go there all the time. It is a really great experience. It's a lot of good adult fun. You can go to a zoo anywhere.

So, obviously, we headed directly to the City Museum after lunch. Then we got there and realized it was $10 a person! But, we were willing to pay that for a St. Louis experience.

Then we got inside and everyone was either 10 years old and playing or 40 years old watching their 10 year old play.

So we kept wandering around and looking, and searching, and then frantically searching for some good adult fun.

But we couldn't find this "adult fun". And while it's really awesome that mostly everything in the museum is old relics from the World's Fair in 1904. It is a children's playground. And we don't have any children. So we had to settle for taking goofy pictures.

And then we left and raced through the zoo in 105 degree weather. Just to make sure we were really exhausted.
