The following is St. Louis City Museum’s ten story slide. That’s somewhere I need to visit one day.

THIS PLACE IS FUCKING AWESOME AND THE TEN STORY SLIDE IS JUST A SMALL PART OF IT

THERE’S THE GIANT WHALE

THERE IS A VERY LARGE PENCIL

A SKATE PARK WITHOUT SKATES

A CIRCUS 

SHOE LACE FACTORY FOR ALL YOUR LACING NEEDS

A FERRIS WHEEL ON THE ROOF AND A PRAYING MANTIS AND A SCHOOL BUS

AWESOME CAVE SYSTEMS OF MYSTERY

MONSTROCITY

IT’S A WONDERLAND OF ART AND WHIMSY AND DANGER

I GOT STUCK IN AN UNDERGROUND TUNNEL THERE AND IT WAS AWESOME

WANT. TO. GO.

Every time I hear about this museum I want to go SO BAD! Maybe this is the summer to make it happen.

I’ve been there! It’s worth a specific trip to St. Louis. I’m dying to go back because their shoelaces (woven on a 150 year old shoelace weaving machine) are the most durable fucking laces in the world and they don’t sell them online.

The ten storey slide is BRUTAL, both the climb and the slide. There’s a candy store near the giant pencil which sells old retro candy and you can sit in a terrifying carnival room and eat a chick-o-stick.

There is a bar next to a marshmallow roasting pit next to a grownup-sized ball pit.

Prepare to spend the next day horizontal, however. After spending a day there with a friend my own age and a rambunctious five year old, I was bruised from hip to ankle and bleeding in a couple of places. (100% worth it.) 

THEY HAVE THE BIGGEST RIVER FISH I’VE EVER SEEN IN AN AQUARIUM.
