[After clearing the police checkpoint the convoy again heads south
and west on Route 66. They stop to take picture of the Bunyon Giant
("Tall Paul") in Altanta, IL, and marvel at the phone booth on the
roof of City Hall in Lincoln. Upon reaching Springfield they stop for
a tour of the Abraham Lincoln Presidential Museum, then they cross in
to Missouri.

When they get to St Louis they stop at the Gateway Arch. As they are
pulling in to the parking area they have to wait for traffic, as a
large RV driven by a curly-coated cat and one driven by a large dog
are just pulling out. Once they get parked they all marvel at the
architectural wonder. They make their way over towards the base, and
start looking for the tour guide cats. They're easy to find, as
they're wearing red vest and gold caps. As the group approaches, the
lead tour guide comes over to them.]

Hello, and welcome to the Gateway Arch! I'm Archibald, and I'll be
leading you through your visit of the monument today. This is one of
Missouri's foremost attractions, and besides being an architectural
marvel, it offers unparalleled views of the surrounding area. It was
built between 1963 and 1965, and stands 630 feet tall! The Arch has
an internal tram system to get humans to the viewing area up top, but
we also have a much faster elevator system for kitties (and
cat-friendly doggies) that gets us to the secret viewing area at the
very top. Who would like to see the very top of the Arch?

Iowna puts a paw up to go to the top! She wants to sniff about from
very high. Cash gulps at getting more than 6feet off the ground but
Daisy-chan assures him she will be right at his side. As they get to
the top, Cash stays in the tram but looks about from the door.
