A Day out with Thomas

Thomas the Train made a visit to St. Louis, so we had to go see what that was all about. I think Max was just a bit too young to totally enjoy it, but I would have always wondered if we didn't go.

Getting on the train. This was the worst part of the day. The old school train cars had no A/C, and it was pretty hot outside. They boarded us and let us sit on the train for 20 minutes before we took off. Max obviously did not understand what was going on, so he was restless and grumpy. When the train finally took off, it went 5 mph for 25 minutes. Oh well...what can you do?

Our friend, Jay Kay, was in town. I thought this was a cute pic!
