Trains for our Toddler

"Choo Choo!" Today Hayden took his first big train ride. We boarded at Irvine and rode 15 minutes South to San Juan Capistrano. The hardest part was waiting for the train. 10 minutes of "choo choo come?", over and over.
But it was all worth it to see his face when the train pulled in. All aboard the Surfliner!He sat like a big boy in his own chair.He even wore his train shirt and hat for the special occasion. And did lots of sight seeing out the window, pointing out every thing from the "trees" to the "snow" (only Hayden saw the snow).We walked around old town San Juan Capistrano, ran around a park, and then headed back to Irvine (1 hour total). Here we are at the depot waiting for our return train.




And back in Irvine with one happy toddler.

Hayden --
You sure do look great in your train hat and shirt going for a 'big' train ride! What fun!(When do you think he will he ask to go on this excursion again, Mom and Dad?)
