Day 9: Kansas City

 Kansas City MO

We stayed close to home today. At 9:00, we drove the few miles into downtown Kansas City, MO, from Stilwell, KS, to the 18th and Vine district, which was once the center of social life for African-Americans living in Kansas City. The main commercial drag has been restored, featuring The American Jazz Museum and the Negro Leagues Baseball Museum. We toured the museums until 12:00.





It was time for lunch, so we ate at Arthur Bryant's Barbeque restaurant near the museum. We ordered sliced beef sandwiches and french fries.

After eating lunch, we drove back to Stilwell. We relaxed in the afternoon and evening.
