Our first morning starts out like any morning; giving the dog his coffee:

Cognac’s morning

is now complete.

Down at the station, we fill time waiting for the train:

Gavin demonstrates Chon-Ji

Gavin shares his new “sign” indicating when he does NOT want me to take his picture:

Meanwhile ClaraJane does not mind.

Then,

once on the train

CJ tattoos Grandpa Bruce

… in the face.

Old Sacramento Train Station

Off to the Train Museum.

Gavin and Anita lead the way

Not enough time at the Train Museum, but it was amazing.

CJ & Anita peer into an old locomotive

Afterwards we go for wonderful lunch on this gorgeous old riverboat:

The Delta King (view from train)

Riverboat’s history

Gavin gives me *The Sign* again

He’d rather be reading (always)!

A wee bit of shopping:

for novelties

and Candy Candy Candy

Then back to the train:

Boy and Grandpa:  My son and my father – such a trip

ClaraJane worries of us not making it in time

[On the ball; a wonderful traveler and companion.  So rad!]

Back on the train we build with Mommy’s new lego candy bricks:

Mommy’s structure

Gavin’s structure

and ClaraJane’s

What a day.  ♥
