Ben & Sophia Go To White Castle
After an evening of going in circles trying to get out of East Saint Louis, we bent our "avoid chain restaurants" rule and went to White Castle. Our hunger, tiredness, and the fact that we have no White Castles near us at home made it was easy to justify this particular fast food chain drive through. We then ate our bag-of-too-many-tiny-burgers at the hotel as we Skyped with our granddaughter.

Budweiser Brewery Experience
The Anheuser-Busch brewery in Saint Louis, Missouri, has been producing beer since 1852. A variety of tours are offered to the public. We participated in the free "Complimentary Tour". This tour included visits to the Clydesdale barn, the brew house, the aging cellars, plus tastings of the product.
