A Long Time Coming

 Melissa and I had tickets to see Kelly Clarkson's residency tour in Las Vegas last summer, but it was cancelled 48 hours before we were supposed to go.  We still went and had a fun time, but we've been waiting to see Kelly.  The concert was rescheduled for this July.  We were so excited!  The other concert the two of us really wanted to attend was Sarah McLachan, but we found out she was going to be in Kansas City while we were in Las Vegas.  What are the chances?!  We found out she would be in St. Louis the day before, so we hatched a plan to take the train to St. Louis and then fly straight to Vegas from there.  It worked, and we had a fabulous 48 hours!

First stop - St. Louis!

We headed to Union Station to take the train. The Amtrack was relaxing.  I read a book, and then we hopped in an Uber to the hotel to check in before heading out for the evening.  We went to a nice Italian restaurant next to the venue, and then walked around for a while.  Sarah McLachan still has the voice of an angel.  Her voice is so soothing, and I really loved hearing the background to her songs, and I also liked her new music as well as the songs I grew up on.  

We loved it, and then we hopped on a plane in the morning to Las Vegas!
