Jim Thorpe Railroad

Hitting the Jim Thorpe Railroad on our way home... RJ enjoyed it to start, but got bored quickly because it stopped and returned back to the train station by just going in reverse.  It wasn't a circular track.  We learned some interesting facts during the ride about the area.

Waiting for the train...

Flower Show

Today we went down to the flower show. I have never been there!  Bob was there a long time ago... like when he was a kid! 

Bob flashed his badge and we got to ride down on the train for free!  Go us!!  Bob's parents had 3 free tickets for us so we only had to buy one... but when Bob went to buy one the lady gave him one for free!  Score!!  Super!!  So far the trip had been free and fun as the kiddos loved the train ride!

We entered the flower show... and then the grouchies took over... "ewww, it smells" and "Let's leave, I am ready to leave now."  Oiy.  We spent barely two hours at the flower show before Bob and I could not take the nagging any longer, so we walked over to Reading Terminal. 

I do have to agree... the flower show for me wasn't THAT exciting and it was crowded. 

As we walked into the Reading Terminal it was PACKED!  There were so many people that we decided to change plans and ate lunch at Maggiano's.  We all enjoyed a yummy Italian meal and headed back to the Reading Terminal for an ice cream dessert! 

Back to the train, and we went home... fun day!!
