Yesterday while in Kansas City we celebrated mom's birthday early with a wonderful dinner at the Skyes Restaurant at the top of the Hyatt Regency Hotel in downtown Kansas City. It is 500 feet off the ground and revolves to show a 360 degree view of Kansas City. The view was as great as the food. We watched nightfall settle over Kansas City and the beautiful orange sun set on the horizon many miles away. They said it takes an hour and a half to do a complete revolution, but we completed it in an hour. Mom had lamb chops - something she has not had in years. She also had orzo, something she said she didn't like but after trying it she found that she does like it. I was impressed because most of the staff stopped and told her happy birthday and brought her a birthday surprise. She really enjoyed herself, and it was a once in a lifetime experience. We probably won't do this again for many years but had a wonderful time. Alayna loved that the scenery changed all the time. She sat on the ledge by the window and laughed when she would move around and have to get up and change to a new spot on the ledge. She was not concerned that she was so high in the air.
