Luke loves trains. Thomas, Chuggington, even plain old school wooden trains (he spends so much time building and redesigning tracks, quite the engineer!) Hannah loves trains too! Not necessarily playing and building to the extent of Luke, she prefers riding on real trains. They both do, having spent a lot of time on trains while in Italy last year, not to mention the excitement of airport shuttle trains every time we fly through airports that have them! HA! Well we couldn't be more thrilled that there are two Metro stops very near us, and we decided to hop on one and take it downtown one beautiful Saturday afternoon! Kids loved it, in fact, it was hard to convince them to get off the train so we could go to dinner, we had to convince Hannah there was no restaurant or bar car or menus to order from!
After a short walk to our next stop,
Moonshine Bar & Grill, we sat outside on the patio drinking cold drinks (Aug is
hot in TX) and eating complimentary popcorn! The kids were less than thrilled with the whole dinner experience, thank goodness for the DVD
Lady & the Tramp...but Mike & I enjoyed our delicious dinner downtown, and the kids rallied for another train ride home! Looking forward to many more weekends together, exploring Austin, and eating our way through the delicious food scene! See you again soon Metro...we will be back!
