Our second day on the CWF trip began with a big buffet breakfast at the Drury Inn. Then we walked down the street to the St. Louis Arch. When we got there, we were able to wander around a little before riding to the top. We took the "egg-shaped" tram to the top and were able to get a birds-eye view of the flooded Mississippi. Reflecting on the arch: Mary got in trouble for taking a picture while loading the tram and many stated, "It was tall."
Then we met on the steps for a group picture. While we were on the steps, a news guy from Channel 4, was reporting on the flooding. JD, Marietta, Jared and Susan were interviewed by the news man. Check out http://www.kmov.com/ for their interviews.
We all loaded the bus for our long bus trip. Once aboard the two birthday delegates were sang to and given crowns to wear. "Happy Birthday Susan and Jared!" Later in the day the amazing Hope bought a birthday cake for them and shared with everyone on the bus.
Activities on the bus today included movie watching: Invincible, National Treasure, and What a Girl Wants as well as countless games of Pitch, Apples to Apples and Uno. Songs such as "Friends in Low Places" were sung as well.
Some of our stops included lunch at Arbys where we got to ring the bell and a bathroom break where a quick game of Reaction Ball was played.
We arrived at in Hunington, West Virginia around 8:00pm eastern time.
P.S. Jared was said to have taken full advantage of it being his birthday.
