Strasburg, White Clay, Longwood (update 4 of 6)

From Grandma Susy and Grandpa John's house in Delaware, we took a day trip to the Strasburg Railroad.


Oliver in particular was very excited about the train ride.


Whether he was sitting next to Grandpa John or Uncle Alex, he was full of smiles.




After the big train ride, the kiddos sat on a kiddo-sized train ...


... and then got to explore the trains at the Train Museum.


That night we picked crabs for dinner.


Oliver wasn't too sure, but in the end, he gave the experience two thumbs up.


The next day, we returned to White Clay Creek to explore.


Oliver (and Uncle Alex) delighted in throwing rocks in the water.


Madeline wanted to see the sights (and admire the butterflies carousing around a crayfish corpse).


Soon enough we were all splashing through the water.



We even found this little live crayfish!


Another day, we went for a nice walk at Longwood Gardens.


The kiddos especially enjoyed spotting this creature -- an axolotl, perhaps? -- in the children's garden.
