Adventures on Father's Day

My Dad requested that we take a little trip to the Big City for Father's Day.  We got on the train in a little town not too far away, and traveled through the rain.  We got off the train about 2 blocks from the restaurant he chose, and arrived there just in time for our previously scheduled reservations.

After lunch, we walked another 2 blocks to the Inclined Plane, and rode it to the top.



 
From up there, we had incredible views of the city gleaming below and the river running by.  We walked a block to an ice cream shop for a cool treat, then rode the Inclined Plane back down the slope.




We walked 2 blocks back to the train station, and rode through the rain again to where our van was parked, then drove back home.

It wasn't a huge outing, but we all had a good time, even though JP was feeling a bit queasy on the rocking and rolling train.  The girls said that it was one of the best Sundays EVER!

Happy Father's Day to two of the best Dads around.  I hope you felt loved and needed on your special day.
