Skunk "Easter Express" Train








We all rode the California Western "Skunk" Train Saturday from Ft. Bragg to Willits, a old train that runs from the coast through the redwoods that used to transport lumber. They had a special train this weekend for easter and they stopped at a station and had a easter egg hunt and brunch set up and when the kids got back on the train there were eggs hidden throughout the cars. Everyone had a really good time, although Kieran wasn't a big fan of the singing conductor. He came up and started singing a song to them and Kieran just looked at him, didn't say a word and immediately walked away (the guy just started laughing). They found a lot of eggs and enjoyed the ride, the weather was nice and there was a open car you can see great views from. Since it goes through the mountains, there were alot of bridges and a long tunnel as well.
