Crown Plaza in KC

Hallmark cards owns a huge chunk of downtown kansas city complete with shopping centers, water fountains, theaters, etc. We started out at Union Station, KC's old train depot. This place was almost as cool as Grand Central Station. There's actually more history in this area than we were expecting. The highlight of the trip though was a tossup between Fritz's Railroad Cafe and the Water Show on the plaza. At Fritz's your food is actually delivered by train. They have all this crazy track system overhead that little trains drop bins of food down to your table. The water show was also really cool. We did see one other white child in the fountain but we were definitely the minority. Big change from PA. It's a fun place for the kiddies.
