Day Out with Thomas

We spent the day Friday at Strasburg Railroad near Lancaster. Thomas was visiting from the Island of Sodor, so we ordered tickets and went to see him. Since the Thomas train ride was only 20 minutes or so, we got tickets for the regular train ride, too.
 
The event was great. It definitely was crowded- there were tons of the 2-5 crowd. And, oh my goodness, the number of strollers was crazy! But it was well organized and laid out well.
 
After the Thomas train ride, we did some fun Thomas activities. Eli got some temporary tattoos, and all three boys played in a tent set up with lots of train tables. In the tent filled with overpriced Thomas merchandise, Eli was allowed to pick one very reasonably priced Thomas book.
 
The boys did well, considering nap schedules were a little out of whack. But we were all exhausted by the time we left, and the three of them were snoozing within a couple minutes. It was a great day and we definitely made some great memories. 
 










" I hear something!"

"It's Thomas!"


We were all very calm and seated the entire time. No one tried to climb out the window or under the seat. (ahem)

Great pictures! Was it you who tried to crawl out the window or under the seat? Ryan and Spencer look like trouble in the one where they are both grinning. Eli looks like he had an incredible time!
