The Polar Express!

We traveled to Bryson City, NC on Sunday, Dec 17. We spent the night at a Sleep Inn. The kids watched A Charlie Brown Christmas just before we all went to bed. We had to get up early for Monday's big events.

On Monday morning we grabbed some breakfast at Burger King and then headed into town to the train depot. We were taking the Polar Express to the North Pole to see Santa!


The train ride was awsome! They served us hot chocolate and rice krispy treats and read the Polar Express story to us on the way to the North Pole. The scenery was breathtaking.



Santa boarded the train when we stopped and Austin received a silver bell. We all sang Christmas carols during the ride back.

It was truly a magical moment!

After the train ride we walked around town and did some shopping. We ate at a little pizza place for lunch and had some ice cream at an old fashion soda shop after lunch.
