J: Hello all! We just finished up our grand one-day tour of Kansas City. We'll be back again in KC next week to watch a Royals game. We arrived in KC on Friday night after 8 hours of driving, one hour through a horrendous thunderstorm. We had a very nice meal on Friday night at Lidia's (Bastianich of Public TV fame). I'll let Marie describe her/our view of the restaurant.
On Saturday we visited the farmers market for breakfast and the Fireman’s Memorial (see pics). We drove down Ward Parkway, which is a beautiful neighborhood with some very nice homes. While there we visited the Laura Conyers Smith Park (see pics). It is a very, very nice urban park with a beautiful rose garden. We gave some thought to having a picnic lunch there, but decided to move on instead. We spent the afternoon at the Plaza (KC’s downtown outdoor mall) and went to the Cathedral of the Immaculate Conception for mass. We had heard that the organ was impressive and it lived up to its billing. The Cantor also had a very nice voice. It was a great place to go to church. Had an early dinner and went to bed early – we’re in for a busy first day of cycling on Sunday.
