Choo, Choo!

When we heard that Thomas the Train would be visiting upstate, we could not wait to get tickets and surprise William. He loves Thomas! So, we packed up and headed north for a day of fun!

William was dressed in his Junior Engineer outfit and ready for his "Day out with Thomas"!

Our own photo of Thomas as we waited in line for the "official" photo! As we waited, William stared at Thomas and said repeatedly, "Choo Choo!"

The boys are really enjoying the ride along the Upper Hudson!

Enjoying the ride!

William is explaining his "Junior Engineer Certificate" to his Dad.

After the train ride, we headed to the food tent for a bite to eat. William enjoyed a hot dog, lemonade and fried dough (a Northern thing!). Live music was played a solo guitarist. William's favorite song, The Wheels on the Bus, was the first one we heard. Then, young William wanted to join in, so he approached the bandstand and played the maraca while the guitarist played!

Fried dough... much like a funnel cake! Yummy!

After receiving a bit of "nourishment," we played a bit in the fun jump and then headed to Imagination Station where train tables were set up! William loved it.

Although it was a bit warm on this Friday afternoon, William had an absolutely wonderful experience!
