Re: First visit to St. Louis, MO / Advice Posted on: Mon, 5 May 2008 17:38:09 -0500


You've covered some of the highlights. Depending on your time here,
additional things of interest:

The Art Museum (in Forest Park)
A St. Louis Cardinals baseball game (downtown stadium)
Anheiser-Busch Brewery if you are into beer (downtown)
Laclede's Landing (entertainment area just north of the arch on the
riverfront)
The City Museum (for kids, downtown)
The Science Center (for kids and adults, just west of the downtown
across from Forest Park)

Nearby:

Wineries (Mt. Pleasant Winery, August, MO - but don't expect high-level
wines)
The River Road Drive - along the bluffs of the Mississippi River from
Alton, Illinois to just beyond Grafton, Illinois. There are ferries
crossing at Grafton back into Missouri or you can use the bridge at
Alton.
Confluence of the Mississippi and Missouri Rivers (a bit of rough rock
road driving but can be tagged onto the River Road Drive)
Six Flags Over Mid-America (for kids) at Eureka, MO

Hope you enjoy our city and surroundings. -- Rik
