So it was the Gateway Arch after all and I must admit the travel from the airport was an easy one. We parked at a space nearby and from there, took a short walk through the picturesque surrounding to the Arch. We went inside the museum first (free always has the first preference); then checked the gift shop out and then, we headed for the tram. It’s good that the River Cruise dock is nearby; in case you buy the tickets early like we did, this place is going to keep you running. The food is good.

Now, I should have known first that they don’t allow the strollers for children. The narration of the tram’s history and hushing down a baby on the lap can’t go hand in hand, more so when the vehicle is packed to the brim. But then again, the ride was quite an enjoyable one; so was the view. It’s spectacular. But little could I gauge what the 630 feet, man-made monument has on offer.

To cut it short, it’s plenty of exciting activities, apart from the tram ride to the top. There’s a documentary film to be seen on a giant-screen movie. However, think twice if you have vertigo; the stunning glimpse of the St. Louis region can pretty well turn into a dizzy feeling from 630 feet above. The Odyssey Theater is a better choice in this case; if you want a larger-than-life experience, then this is the place for you.

Coming back to the sightseeing cruise along the Mississippi. These scenic cruises do more than recapturing the vibrant life that existed during the steamboat era. And just like the rest of the ticket prices, even this has been kept at a bare minimum. But had it been even higher, I wouldn’t have thought twice, for no price can be high enough to get a glimpse of the days of the old West.
