The streets of St. Louis were a welcome change from the rigors of choir life. Towards noon, we threw
our luggage upon the hospitality of the City Place Hotel and invaded the city in search of recreation and
repose. Zoos were explored, beds were napped upon, and many eager noses were pressed against the
windows lining the pinnacle of the Gateway Arch. To culminate our day, we dined at the Three Sixty
Restaurant crowning a Hilton Inn near our hotel. There we savored birds-eye views of the Saint Louis
cityscape alongside a sumptuous dinner. The morrow will find a deeply refreshed Oasis Chorale ready to
hit its final week in full stride.
