Thomas in Hood River!

Two people live in Hood River, my friend Teresa Christensen (Not for years, but we think of her when we hear Hood River) and Thomas the Tank Engine (Not really, but he comes into "Port" once a year). This is our 3rd year to visit the train station and take a ride. The train station is packed with Thomas lovers! This year was just as fun! WE got on the first car, right next to Thomas (No one rides in Thomas). Derek smiled the whole time! Besides the ride, there are a ton of activities to do, along with Photo opportunities.

We first take a bus ride to the train station.


While we what for our "departure" we stroll around the train station and check out all the Thomas "stuff".


Then we hear the whistle blowing and we know who's coming down the track!


Time to board the train! We got great seats! Bob even took Derek out on the balcony during the ride and let him touch Thomas. After we were on our way, Mr. Conductor made his way through the train. What a sweet man, letting people get their pictures taken with him.





Can't wait for next year!!!
