There is a park around the Arch that is beautiful! I’m guessing it is purposely surrounded by a park for security reasons.
We went through airport type security before enteringthe museum.
My photographer struggled to figure out how to get the whole arch in the picture. So this will have to do.
Time to head to the top!
This was rough. See that tiny steel door? Well, five people squeeze through that door to sit in a trolley car that takes you to the top.
The view inside. It takes 4 minutes to get to the top.
Four very long minutes.
I took a super fast picture of everyone at the top. I pointed out the Illinois side and the view if the Missouri side and then hopped in line to get out if there. Ugh...the swaying.
Will knew the heights & claustrophobia were putting me on edge, so he was quick to give me some love.
Back down to the ground!
The Mississippi River.
And I do believe I will never go up in that thing again, but the kids had a great experience. Christian could have spent the night up there!
