Jake is so fun.

We had a great time in St. Louis. As soon as we checked into our "St. Louis room", Jake found a cozy chair in the bedroom and made it his own. He put his favorite blanket and his stuffed animals on it mark his territory. We visited the St. Louis Zoo. It is free to get in but $11 to park. I think that's fair. It's an old zoo but big and clean. The train ride was cool because you get to see most of the zoo on the ride. They had a stingray event where Jake got to feed and pet them.


We also went to the city museum. That is a strange place. The first floor is made up of mazes and slides made from recycled materials. The second floor is an acquarium made up of strange collection of mammals as well as sea animals. It seemed as if it was built with things discarded by other acquariums. The third floor was made up of slides for children.

Jake also took a picture of his blue bear in the hotel room. It's his best yet and I thought everyone should see. Blue bear is his favorite toy and buddy. Jake was slowly growing out of him when he turned 1 years old. However, when he started to get sick and during his stay in the hospital, blue bear was his safety blanket. He loves his bear.
