A Train Ride

From the St Louis Edition:

For our second anniversary, we celebrated by going on our first train ride.  We took the train to a historic German town called Hermann.  We spent the day there and then rode it back.

Here comes our train!

The train didn't stay at the station very long.  We hurried on board and off we went.

This is what the interior looked like... very much like an airplane only more spacious and comfortable.  Compared to the noise of the train from the outside, the inside was very quiet and the ride was smooth.  I liked it better than an airplane.  We stopped at one station during our one hour trip before we came to Hermann.

We found a coffee shop where we played games and ate our lunch. And of course, drank coffee. 

A funny sign at the coffee shop!

After lunch, we walked up town.  These neat doors were along the way.

We visited several small shops.  Danny snoozed in the carrier just like we hoped he would.

At one of the shops, Steven bought me this beautiful rose!

Daddy!

After we ate supper, we sat by the river and waited for our train.

We had a very warm but fun day!
