Poor St. Louis

Unfortunate news for the Casa Loma, St. Louis was just rated as the 'Most Dangerous City in the US' by an NBC pole. Possibly a confirmation of this pole was part of our Halloween stay that I neglected to mention in my previous blog posting. On arrival we found that we'd left a couple of items at home and wanted to find a drug store where we could pick them up. We walked down to the desk and asked the clerk on duty if there was a drug store in walking distance. She told us that she wouldn't recommend walking anywhere in the vicinity of the hotel due to the danger of doing so. Something to be aware of if you choose the Casa Loma as a dance location.
