Old route 66
... a 900 lb. bike by yourself! At the next toll, I just blew through without paying!

Van op een verre afstand hadden we natuurlijk ook de bekende boog van St Louis gezien. Deze staat symbool als toegangspoort tot de stad en werd gebouwd tussen 1963 en 1965. Vervolgens kwamen we aan bij ons hotel, het Millennium Hotel. Na een douche ging ik het hotel even verkennen. Op de bovenste verdieping ...
