I am now visiting the Gateway Arch. I have seen it for a couple of days from my hotel room and now am getting ready to visit!!!!! The cost was $13 for a trip up and back. It takes 4 minutes up (sort of like an elevator) and 3 minutes down (thanks to gravity). It was nice but the windows are really tiny compared to the Freedom Tower in NYC. You ride in a car that fits 5 people and you start moving vertical to reach the summit at 630 feet. Pretty crowded up there and I noticed several people just sitting in front of the windows talking and not looking out. The rest of us had to wait for them to move over and let someone else look out. Quick ride down and it was a fun trip!!!
