The Pumpkin Train



Last weekend we went to the National Railroad Museum in Green Bay to ride the Pumpkin Train. There's a train that gives about a 7 minute ride out to a field where there are hundreds of pumpkins. Each person on the train gets to pick out a pumpkin. We went with JL, Mel, and their girls, and all four girls loved looking at all the pumpkins. Afterward there were many activities for the kids and Jordan and Maya especially loved climbing in the trains.

Caves in Canada

One of the days we drove to a little scenic cave tour. There was a very scary suspension bridge to walk across, some neat caves to look in (not many to go in, though), and a nature trail that Lily enjoyed immensely. At the end of it all there was a trout pond with about five tame really large trout in it. We bought some trout food and Lily fed the fish.

Oh Canada

We went on vacation to Canada this month. We stayed at a resort right outside Barrie, Ontario which is about 1.5 hrs north of Toronto. Since there wasn't much to do in the area except snow ski (not in season) and golf (season ending), we decided to drive the almost 3 hours to Niagara Falls. It was really worth it. Here are some pictures of the falls and of us on the Maid of the Mist boat tour.
