Train Museum

We went to the Railroad Museum last Saturday & the kids had a ton of fun. I had fun too.
I think the best part was that the whole time we were there, Sonny kept saying
"Real Train" over & over. He loves trains. So here's the pics from our day. If you've
never been, you should go. It's really neat. I'd like to go again. I've never ridden on a
"REAL TRAIN" before. Only BART. (does that count?)
I took this pic while standing upstairs.

Sonny looking down at all the "Real Trains".
Walking by the train that they have upstairs.
What's a train museum without some Thomas the Tank Engine?
Some more displays.
Watching the train they had going around the Christmas tree.
Sonny kept going under the ropes trying to get closer.
Sonny, Libby & Blake looking at "real trains"

Pic of old mail. I thought it was really cool learning about how the trains were used to
deliver the mail. Very stressful. Now they use planes & trucks. Much faster.


Blake & Sisa in front of a huge train.

Trying to climb on in.
We had a very fun day & after we went across the street to the candy store & loaded up on
salt water taffy. Have you tried the chocolate chip cookie flavor? MMMM...so good.
