At least that was the plan... two track days in a row with the Ducati Owner's Club of Canada and the Twisty-Sisterz at Mosport Intl Raceway. Unfortunately, the weather did not cooperate with the plan and we barely made it onto the track before getting soaked 
It was still a lot of fun and we'll definitely do it again next year!

Since I wasn't "officially" attending the convention, Today I got to go out and explore St. Louis for a few hours while Siu Yan was in classes. I chose the Forest Park area because it had so many museums and other things to see. I ended up walking 14.5 miles (23.3 km) and still didn't see it all!! The place is huge. All of these pictures (except for lunch and dinner) are in the Forest Park area.

St. Louis Red Cross National Convention - Day Two
|
|
Today Siu Yan, Hugh, Suzanna and I took the bus to the Anheuser-Busch Brewery for a free tour. I took a lot GREAT pictures, but accidently deleted them all from my memory card! I was able to salvage most of them later with a file recovery program, but a handful of really nice ones are still missing  Later in the evening we attended the Official Opening Ceremony and afterwards, a welcoming dinner/reception on the historic Eads Bridge. The city closed down the bridge just for us!

The Arch is magnificent and quite spectacular in this hot and humid city of St. Louis. We did the touristy thing and tried the toasted ravioli which was quite yummy!
Bit of history: During the Great Flood of 1993, the Mississipi crested at 49 feet, 7 inches at St. Louis, the flow of water equaled eleven times the volume of Niagara Falls and engulfed the steps at the Gateway Arch. The flood destroyed 55,000 homes and ranks as the 5th largest disaster relief effort ever undertaken by the American Red Cross.

1st Anniversary
|
|
Wow! We had the best 1st Anniversary ever 
Siu Yan surprised me with a demo instruction flight at Burke Lakefront Airport (isn't she the best? (    ) I thought it would be an airtour around downtown or something, but I actually ended up doing 85% of the flying! Did need a bit of help with the landing though hehe.
I haven't been flying in yeaaaaars.
Then we had a wonderful dinner at Sans Souci and caught the opening show of FAME at Playhouse Square. It was a great show with an excellent cast and an amazing set. More detail later, but I did take a handful of pics....

Balcony in the Morning
|
|
|
Just some pictures from my balcony this morning. The sounds of construction outside woke me up! I'm not sure what they are doing down there. The "garden" is coming along well enough, I'm just waiting for the seeds to sprout!

Siu Yan and I helped out at the Red Cross refreshment booth at the Marathon today. We handed out water and Powerade to hundreds of thirsty runners. It was pretty fun, despite all of the rain!
