Now that that's out of the way. Beckie took me on a whirlwind tour of St. Louis. We hung out in Forest Park all day. First we tried to go to the Jewel Box but it was closed for a wedding. :( So we started with the Art Museum instead. We saw everything! The Mummies, Monet, Manet, freaky art, cool art, Jesus art...anything you could imagine. It was definitely a good time. Afterward we went to eat at the Boathouse. We both ate chicken fingers and our lunch was under $5 a person. :D Yea we're always up for a bargain. Now on to the Science Center! We built the Arch with some really sweet kids.
I told Beckie we were meant to work with kids! Every time we go somewhere we end up working with kids. :D It's always a blast! We went and saw the Charles Darwin exhibit. It was slightly disappointing and it would have been a snore if Beckie hadn't been with me. We can make anything funny. Our favorite thing was this giant armadillo looking thing called the Glyptodont. Yea we had a lot of fun with that word. GlyptoDONT mess with me! Hey GlyptoDONT do that! We thought we were hilarious! haha We walked around the corner and saw this cool science thing we had to try out. They are called science benches...they have 4 or 5 different activities, like analyzing fingerprints or finding wheat germ DNA! Here's a couple pictures of us in our very glamorous scientist outfits!
Aren't we scientifically gorgeous???When we finished we sadly hung up our beloved lap coats, threw away the lovely rubber gloves and took of the sporty eyewear. After that we headed downstairs to see the super scary dinosaurs!!! Yea they're definitely not as scary as they were when I was 5. :\ Then I spotted the build-a-bear workshop! So Beckie and I decided to go look inside. That's when we saw it. The perfect bear! The bear is all white with a red, white and blue peace sign on it's tummy and a blue nose with a red peace sign. We loved him sooo much Beckie got him for me as a going away present. So Beckie went through the whole process. She stuffed him, picked out his heart, made a wish and all sorts of goofy stuff! Here's a picture! Yes that's Beckie rubbing the bear's heart on her nose.
It was too good of a picture to pass up. After we got the bear it was time for the Science Center to close so we walked back over the highway bridge and went to get dinner. We ate at TacoBell. Oh what an interesting trip to TacoBell... After our interesting trip to TacoBell we headed to the Muny so we could get in line for the free seats. It was my first time to the Muny and we saw Titanic the musical. It was awesome! Beckie couldn't believe I had never been to the Muny so she was very glad she could take me for my first time. Apparently that's just what best friend's do. lol. So after the Muny we drove back home and all in all it was an awesome night! Unforgettable!!! Thanks Beckie for making it such an awesome and memorable day! We'll have to do another whirlwind tour when I come back in December!!! :D
