Spring Break - Day 3

Today (I don't know what came over me) we ventured to far away Baltimore -- yes, just me with the three kids. We went to the B & O Railroad Museum. What a nice surprise this place was! We were able to take an actual train ride, look at some model trains, play on a little train playground and look at a good amount of large trains! The museum was huge! Thomas is actually coming this weekend, but I'm glad we went when we did -- I don't do well with crowds and three kids!

The trip took about an hour each way and we spent a little over two hours at the museum. The disappointing thing was that the cafe is closed during the week -- it would have been nice to have lunch there and eat it outside (about half of the museum is outdoors). If Jeff was with me I'm sure we would have gone and had lunch at the inner harbor, but I'm just not the daring by myself and was exhausted already. It does cost money to go, but you can google buy one get one free coupons. As souvenirs we purchased three books about trains that we can read at night. I've been doing that lately -- purchasing books instead of toys as souvenirs -- they are timeless.

All in all we had a fun time!

To tell you the truth though -- I think "Day 4" might be spent at home. I had a hard time waking up yesterday!

Sorry again for the lack of pictures! There was a blurry spot...again! Turns out a little bit of Purell got under the automatic lens cap -- go figure, right?



Here are the girls handing over their tickets for the train ride!
