Christmas Train
Yesterday evening we took a one and a half hour trip to Dry Gulch, north-east of here, to visit the Christmas Train!!
It was a fun evening! We arrived to a small western town. The people working there were all dressed up and the buildings were lit up with christmas lights. You could find the train station, small restaurants, a church, a christmas shop and more. Not only could you ride the main attraction; the christmas train, you could also take a trip with a horse carriage, or just walk around by foot. Other attractions were a big playground (which the kids really enjoyed), a carousel, and horseback riding. We arrived around 6 pm and started out taking the train. During the ride we got to see nice paintings of the Bible, from Genesis to revelation. The nativity scene, the cruzifiction and the empty grave were played by real people while we passed by. Really professionally done! We all enjoyed the ride!
After the train ride we went to have something to eat. While waiting for the guys to get the food, Aron and Tilde ran around the christmas tree inside the building where we were to eat. They had a great time! With our stomachs full of food we went to the christmas shop to look around! Finally before leaving we let the kids play for a bit on the big playground. We were back in Tulsa after 10 pm so today we slept in a bit.....=)
So here are some pics from the event!
