St. Louis and Liverpool


 Our Room in Downtown St. Louis



 The St. Louis Zoo....we didn't stay long that day- it was too hot.  However, I loved seeing the elephants!




 Busch Stadium....Let's go Liverpool!









Luke and I went to St. Louis to see the Liverpool soccer team.  We had a blast trying out diners and places we have seen on Food Network.  Our room was at the Hilton in downtown St. Louis.  We walked to the arch as well as Busch Stadium.  We even went to Ikea and the zoo while we were there. 

The highlight of the trip was seeing the Liverpool Soccer team play.  Chris adored this team.  I cried when they played the song, "You'll never walk alone."  Hearing all the Liverpool fans sing it was really neat.  While waiting to get into the gate at the stadium, the security guys couldn't figure out why all the soccer fans were waiting in line to get in.  They said several times how baseball fans weren't like this.  Nope- soccer fans are dedicated.  In fact, several guys in front of us had their Liverpool flags handing on the railings.  It was really a fun time.  Chris would have been so stoked to be at the game.

Thanks Luke for a wonderful and memorable weekend!
