Well, G&G live right downtown, right next to the train tracks and all day (and several times a night), trains and trolleys would pass by. This by far was my most favoritest thing of the entire trip. I could hear the warning bells of the train stops away and would alert everyone by SCREAMING, "train coming, train coming" and run to the balcony, hallway or window to see the train. While the train was passing I said, "hi train, hi train, hi train," over and over and over until the train had passed. You'd think I would have gotten sick of the trains and trolleys, but nope, I squealed with the same delight on the last day of our trip, just as I did on the first day. Across the street from G&G's is a coffee shop that grandpa nicknamed the train restaurant and grandpa took me there for breakfast twice! I literally got to sit on the patio and watch the trains go by. Unbeknownst to mommy, there is also a store that sells candy and juice on the 2nd floor. Grandpa and I had a little secret going for awhile and then I spilled the beans. Yup, that's right, Grandpa would take me on secret missions to purchase the contraband candy and juice!
Grandpa reading me a story for bedtime. I had to get rested up for my first trip to the train restaurant.
I love it when Grandpa feeds me
The men, out for breakfast. You can see how close the tracks are to are table! Very exciting!
"hi train, hi train, hi train, hi train."
