BBWWT Day #22 - Kansas City!

 

For whatever reasons, my photos loaded last to first this time....  Day #22, we stayed in Lees Summit, MO which is approx 30 miles from Kansas City.  We spent the day working in Big Blue.  Then that evening, we took a drive to the city.  It was quiet (most places were closed, early in the week).  I would definitely come back for another visit.  We didn't see a ton, but we got a nice feel and really liked it!
These first few photos were actually taken when we were done walking around, and driving out.
I was surprised at how modern the 'bus/trolley' system was.  It felt very European.  Electronic bus stops, sleek electric buses...
KC has lots of wall art, which we love to look at
a good mixture of old and modern buildings too
The only section that we found open (and there were only a few patrons).  Kansas Power & light district.  We bought some delicious Insomnia cookies, then listened to some music played by  a DJ.  They have a huge area with a massive television screen where you can sit and watch KC sports.  The royals were playing (just behind our heads :))

It was a little chilly, but it was nice walking around town




We parked at Union Station, and walked down Main Street - we had to cross over these tracks - lots of trains

Union Station - quite impressive

Before driving to downtown KC, we took a nice drive around our camp ground - beautiful lake.  Too bad we didn't have more time and better weather
