Da Train Da Train

Gotta love Metro Parent. We found a National Train Day event that happened all around the country on Saturday, May 8th. And the best part, it was free : )

We took the Max to the Union Station in downtown Portland, which was fun. Connor LOVED riding the train down there, and he was so giddy with excitement. A lot of times we love to go out and do things simply to see the look on Connor's face when they're happening. That, and we try to soak up every thing we can before we leave Portland!

They had a lot of informational things to get the word out about traveling by train, but had some things for the kids to do as well. They had train tours (which we were mostly interested in), but we were only able to go on one of the trains, as the other train was too noisy, and Connor was afraid of it! Here are some pictures of our weekend:

This was the train he liked : ) 

He had no problem taking his picture with this guy!

This was the train he WAS scared of..noisy horn!

He settled down as soon as Daddy took him

Inside the train

Some random clown came up to him and gave him a sucker! 

The view from the top!

Clown performances

Haha. We told him he could have his sucker in the car, and as soon as we got in the car he reminded us!

lol

Waiting for the ride back

Looking both ways...

He was ready to get on!
