Train Show

Took Khai to the train show today at the Dulles Expo Center. Holy trains!!! The place was packed with train enthusiasts, young and old. There were two lines to get in the door and both went clear around the corner of the building. When we got inside we didn't know where to start first - there was SO much to see!! There was a Thomas train with two coach cars that kids could ride on a track around the place. The line for that was ridiculous....though we somehow managed to work our way to the front. Did we cut in line?? I think so. Not on purpose though!!! Although we realized we had when the man behind us gave us dirty looks and pushed past us - but by then we were at the very front of the line and there was no way we were turning around. Khai was pretty excited to get on the ride until the very last second...then he got scared. We gave it a few more tries but he would only go if I went with him (ride was too small for Mommy). So we got out of line and continued looking around at the gazillions of trains displayed. Khai was in heaven!! Especially when we stopped at the Thomas store, and of course he walked out with a new train....or two..or three.

Awesome!!! Khai must have been in heaven! The expression on his face says it all. I love him peering over the edge of the huge train table!!
