Tuesday instead of Wednesday


Here are a few pictures of our outing yesterday to the Central West End for lunch, and to the St. Louis Science Center to the Omnimax theatre (finally) (I've been meaning to go to that for years!).. The show was about a mountain climber whose father died 40 years ago climbing the north face of the Eiger, a treacherous vertical top peak of the Alps. The son has been haunted with that memory, and challenges himself to conquer the snow packed mountain ! The screen of the Omnimax takes up the entire top of the inside of this amazing dome ! It's spectacular! You can imagine the photography of the snowy mountain range taken by helicopters, WOW !
We left there for a little lunch at the CWE and sat outside in the shade of an umbrella at Luluma..(236 N. Euclid)
We had a fine time, and finished with a cupcake at the cupcakery down the street, after checking out the cute little mystery book store tucked in on Euclid.... (The salad with roasted chicken was delightful !)
It would be so fun to live in one of those wonderful old 2 or 3 story homes down in that part of the city !! They are all so beautifully maintained and unique !

Thanks for sharing all of this with us! I can only imagine how wonderful it must be to see something like that in person. :) Again, thanks for sharing it with us. :)
