On the conclusion of our Midwest Baseball Tour at The World on Wheels, we take a side trip to Monroe Elementary School in Topeka, Kansas...where Oliver Brown's daughter attended. They're better known as the Brown in Brown v. The Topeka Board of Education, a landmark suit for civil rights. Now, it's a national historic monument. With video and pictures, we also visit the state historical museum and find one heck of a good comfort food restaurant: http://tinyurl.com/37lhfcy

As the baseball tour moves along at The World on Wheels, we visit with the 33rd President of the United States and do some world-class eating. Today we hit Independence and Kansas City: http://tinyurl.com/2d2r82u

It's a day before gametime so that gives us time to do some sightseeing at the Jefferson National Expansion Memorial Park, AKA home of the Arch, and take a cruise along the mighty Mississippi in St. Louis. Report, pictures, and video are waiting for you now at The World on Wheels: http://tinyurl.com/2vo7hjw

We were in the Southwest terminal, can't remember the number...2? Anyway, we double checked...in the entire terminal, in the secure zone, there are 4 toilets...not bathrooms...for each sex. There are 3 snack carts with a small selection of food and drink. Before security, there are the usual shops, restaurants, and restrooms. This is particularly bad if you're in a wheelchair because the airlines want you to show up an extra hour earlier than everyone else to tag the chair, make sure you qualify for preboard, etc.

I can see where it would be super-convenient for arrival, but departure...at least at Southwest...can be a chore. Talking with other people who have experienced leaving from MCI, I know I'm not alone in my opinion.

The rental car facility is top-notch, however. And the city of KC itself is great. Didn't see the forest, I had an aisle seat.

Darryl - I'm not sure which of the three terminals you were flying out of at KCI, but all three have been updated with restrooms inside security. I fear that some less than helpful TSA person did not direct you properly.
Those of us who fly out of KCI on a regular basis love it for its quick, conveniet access to the curb. I often arrive for my flight no more than 45 minutes prior to departure, and usually after landing, I'm in my car and heading home in less than 10 minutes.
I'm sorry you didn't get the full picture of KCI. Perhaps as you departed, you looked down to the southwest and saw the Heart Forest, a 22-acre landscape of concentric hearts in various blooming trees, welcoming all to the Heartland of America.

Admittedly, not the most exciting city for public transit but the one I have the most recent experience with...check out our new Transit Report for Kansas City today on The World on Wheels: http://tinyurl.com/2a4phtt

Planning on being in St. Louis anytime soon? Although it's a pretty simple setup, the city has a decent transit scheme. Today on The World on Wheels, take a look at our brand new St. Louis Transit Report: http://tinyurl.com/2cs9bh5
