I'm a little behind, sorry. The kids were really into The Polar Express this year. I would even venture to say that it was one of Beckham's favorite movies. We started talking to the kids about riding the Polar Express when we got to Arkansas, and they were pumped! We talked about seeing Santa Claus and having hot cocoa and cookies.
We bought special pajamas to wear (Paw Patrol and Blaze), and donned our new coats to brace ourselves against the 30 degree temperatures!
Cayden was really excited about his ticket wit the C on it.
Once the train started moving and the cocoa was served, they really enjoyed themselves. The train was kind of old, but the kids didn't mind. They read The Polar Express out loud to the guests. We saw some Christmas lights and there were some elves dancing along with way!
Santa Claus was pretty great. He was great at talking with the kids and joking with them. I have to say my favorite part was getting the bell!
Cayden has already requested to ride again next year! We chose the 4:45 time thinking that it would be better to eat after, but I think the 6 o'clock ride would be good next year - it seemed much less crowded!
