Trains & Fountains

We took a trip to Union Station and Crown Center this morning.  The boys had a choice of the following exhibits: Curious George, Real Pirates, Kaleidoscope, Trains...of course, they chose the train exhibit with no hesitation!  The nice train conductor man followed us around...he explained a lot about the trains as well as provided insight to train activities we can do at home.  It was obvious that he really loved his job there!  The boys were mesmerized by the trains, and then the conductor asked if they wanted to go behind the tracks where they could have a close-up view without the protective glass...they loved it!  He even let them touch some tracks and trains.  Then, we went back across the Link and watched the fountains for awhile.  They had so much fun and Matty is already asking when he can go back!
The conductor explains the route.

Nothing beats the fountains!
