Father's day we decided to try something new and went out to the Heritage Society to see what they had to offer. We had the best time there and would highly recommend it to anyone who likes tractors and trains!
The model rail engineers of Victoria have built a railroad system that is fantastic. It has everything that you would have on a real railroad at 1/8 the size. The trains are steam or diesel just like real trains and run on this track that takes about 15 minutes to complete. There are tunnels and bridges and railway crossings and a rail house. Kian and Julean loved going for a ride and as usual, there were tears when it was time to leave.

Through the tunnel....
Over the tressle bridge...The next stop was the picnic and all the tractors to play on. There were so many that Kian didn't know where to start! It was heaven for a 2 year old. The nice thing about the heritage society is that there really isn't anything that you can't play on and touch. It can be very difficult to take a 2 year old to the museum for that reason!
DIGGER! ( I had to run to catch up with him!)
I think this says it all!
I have no idea what this is called but it is the crane thing that helps lay the track for the rail road. (I think!)
FIRE TRUCK!
I think we had a pretty good father's day and the boys were thoroughly worn out by the time we got home. I'm sure we will be going back again. Apparently at Christmas time you can ride the trains and see the lights. Sounds like a great thing to do!

Mommy you can't strap my into my car seat, you're too old!
