I think I’ve probably already mentioned that C loves trains. The depth of this love can be rather surprising. Several months back, I took the boys down to the Animal Kingdom for a Saturday of fun. <\/p>\n
On the way, which is about a 45 minute trip, they completely conked out. By the time I arrived at the parking lot, they were fast asleep. <\/p>\n
Or seemed to be. <\/p>\n
As I was pulling into the parking space, one of the parking trams went past. C went from fast asleep (and snoring) to completely awake. “Train!” he shouted. “Look Daddy, A Train!”<\/p>\n
That woke N up, and we were off and running. <\/p>\n
