A trip to see Thomas...

that is, the Tank Engine. Maybe every summer the same activities go on & somehow Thomas the train show comes to Scotts Valley right near Santa Cruz. We arrived to see the train only to see Ashwin scared out of his wits! Thomas is a noisy steam engine in real life & Ash was not too keen at all to go anywhere near that Thomas! So Holly & I went on & had to forfeit his ticket as there was no way Ash was going to get on that scary, noisy train! It was a lovely ride through the redwoods listening to a Thomas song & story. Don't think we'll try that one again! Still we enjoyed the rest of the day at the bakery close by for brunch & then off to the UCSC Marine Lab where the kids had fun checking out the ex military dolphins & learning about whales.
