Before we took the trip, Mommy discovered a very cool city museum in downtown St. Louis on the internet. The museum is inside the building that was formerly home to the international shoe factory. Then in 1995, it was converted to a giant funhouse for young and older people out of unique, reclaimed objects found within city and the collection includes cranes, old bridges, vintage trains, fish tank full of turtles etc. All these are accessible via stairs, elevator, tunnel or slide. Initially Aiden wasn't quite sure about the place, as it is an OLD and strange place he has never seen. But then once he saw kids crawling through tunnels and doing the slides, he immediately jumped in and loved everything in the museum. Most of our family are afraid of heights, but not Aiden. There was a big playground on the roof top of 11th floor building. He climbed all the way on the top and walked through the tunnels that you can see through everything that are nearly 12th floor high underneath. He did everything like he was just walking on the ground. Mia was a little too young for most of the stuff there, but she did like to slide with mommy and checked out the turtles and fish.
