On Wednesday Marcus, Olivia, and I went to Union Station to see the A Christmas Carol train. It has been traveling around the US to 40 cities to promote the movie. We left the house as soon as she got up from her nap. When we got there we drove around for 15 mins just looking for a parking spot. Once we found one we had to pay $5 to park about 3 blocks away. As we were walking to Union Station from our parking spot we meet this couple with a baby of their own. As we pass them they ask if we are going to see the train and we say yes, then they tell us that it is a 2 1/2 hour wait. There is no way I am going to sit in a long line in the hot sun with Olivia like that. So instead we went across the street to a little park area with a fountain. We did however go in to take a picture by the sign.
Olivia and I looking at the water fountain. She loves looking at water, she would just point and talk. I guess it was the next best thing to seeing the train, for her at least.
so sorry it didn't work out...glad she liked the fountain though :-)
