Fall Train Ride

Last weekend, we took the kids to ride a train in North Freedom, Wisconsin. North Freedom is near Baraboo, so it's about a 2 1/2 hour drive from Appleton. We had tickets to ride the 10:00 train, so we had to be on the road fairly early.

The GPS told us that our ETA (estimated time of arrival) was 9:57. Oh, dear! We made up about 10 minutes because we didn't hit any traffic and made it to the train station just in time.

All aboard!

Mommy and Mallory

Isaiah was so excited! The train ride was about an hour long. He and Mallory both sat really good the entire time.

That was so much fun!

I am really pleased with how my pictures turned out. I'm thinking of enlarging and framing some of them to hang in Isaiah's bedroom.

The Train Station


Mallory waited patiently for her brother to take a look at some of the train cars on display.
We were hoping that the leaves would have turned more for our trip, but it still worked out okay. The weather was quite cool, and there was a drizzly rain. We weren't miserably cold or anything, so I felt it really added to the experience.
We will definitely be looking into this again next year!
