I have a newbie question in laravel. I'm trying to query a DB. I have already modified the config to include the necessary credentials for my DB. Now, when i try to query my DB like this:

```
 <?php
 /*
 |--------------------------------------------------------------------------
 | Application Routes
 |--------------------------------------------------------------------------
 |
 | Here is where you can register all of the routes for an application.
 | It's a breeze. Simply tell Laravel the URIs it should respond to
 | and give it the Closure to execute when that URI is requested.
 |
 */
 Route::get('/', function()
 {
   $topPages = DB::table('webmasters') -> get();
   return $topPages;
 });

```

I get: Fatal error: 

> 
> Class 'Route' not found in /.../.../.../dashboard/app/routes.php on
>  line 13.
> 
> 
> 

I have followed laracast video for accessing a database to the letter, can someone pls tell me what i'm missing or doing wrong here?
Thanks in advance.
