The last time I was there I think I was 5. I really don't have much memory except for the cowboys and indians on the train. And now there we were, Chris and I with our little girls sharing the same experience with them. They absolutely LOVED the train!!! There was the full-out skit with the deputies and sheriff and townspeople before the train pulled off, then they loaded the train with us to go the "Western Union" the first stop, and then "Fort Boone", the second stop to fight the indians. They actually act out a different scenerio each time you ride. We rode twice.
Besides the train, there are cars for the kids to drive, boats, planes, carosel, ferris wheel, tilt-a-whirl (don't recommend doing right after lunch), chair-lift, feeding deer and goats, etc.... Of course while we were there we had to get a funnel cake and ice cream for the girls, and buy them Tweetsie t-shirts!!! Oh, and we went on a Monday, not crowded at all, felt safe, kids ran around, we were very relaxed with them all day long.
Overall, it was just a great way to spend our 7th anniversary!!! And, on the way home we stopped by and got take-out from Carrabbas, our favorite restaurant & the place we always go for our anniversary. This time we just added a kids meal. Oh, it was a great way to top off a great day!!!
I highly recommend Tweetsie!!!!
Here are some pictures and a short video of us on the train for the second time. Notice the kids (Chris too) are so tired and tired of me filming them. But I just had to capture the moment, the western music they played on the train and the girls waving was just so cool.
