Even though she's a little girl, my Sophie loves trains. We went and saw Thomas the Tank Engine earlier this year which was such fun, but as she's gotten older, she's grown to appreciate them more and more, and also get more and more excitement out of seeing them.
Last Tuesday we dropped Steve's Dad off at Roma St to get the train back to Bundy, and Sophie saw the big diesel train come in. We've dropped people off there before, but never have we gotten such a reaction. Even just being at the Train Station was a delight for her.
So on Wednesday, instead of driving into the city to pick up Steve, we parked at a train station and caught the train in. We had afternoon tea on the platform at Central just watching the trains arrive and depart. Even though we were there for twenty minutes, I reckon Sophie could have sat for another hour easily.
It was worth the heat and hassle to see both of my girls enjoy the new adventure of trains. Did you notice Sophie is wearing her Thomas shirt for the event? Got to be wearing a Train Shirt when seeing Trains.
