Santa Train

Jeffery and I had a Date with the Santa Train in Portola at the Western Pacific Railroad Museum last night.  First we ate at Lena's Cantina, then on to the show!  The darkness made most of my photos blurry, so I only have a few to offer.  For $5 and 3 cans of food, we had a blast, and we want to go back in the daylight, because we were reminded how cool the RR Museum is!

There's the Museum and the Train!

I could see out this window as we rode the Santa Train.  All the cars were cabooses!

Jeffery had to be seen with Santa, too

Upon leaving the Museuam, we stopped along the highway, where we could see the train do it's loop.  What fun!
