St. Louis, United State -- Day 14

The Gateway to the West...the forgotten Olympic city was the first to host an Olympic Games on U.S. soil way back in 1904...And if you thought Delhi was hot, welcome to summertime in St. Louis...The flame is carried past the Arch...and intown neighborhoods...and past the stadium at Washington University where track and field events for the Olympics were held 100 years ago...10,000 people showed up at Art Hill to see Jackie Joyner-Kersee carry the flame into the city celebration...good stuff
