Kansas City Day 2

On the second day of our vacation the steam train was leaving town and the kids (and Greg) wanted to see it moving.  Greg had found a spot that seemed like it would be a good place to safely watch the train moving.  So we got up early and ate breakfast in the car on the way to the appointed location.  We were parked on a gravel road just outside a little town where we could wait for the train to come.  When it came by all three of the kids were jumping up and down with excitement.  I have to admit that watching them get excited was way more fun than the train itself.

After watching the train we spent the rest of the day at the Kansas City Zoo.  It was a nice zoo.  The bought wrist bands that allowed us to ride the train, the tram (it took you to the Africa area and back) and the carousel as many times as you wanted.  They really enjoyed the day watching all the animals.
