Yesterday we went to see Thomas the Train in Heber Utah. My 12 year old and 9 year old were not very excited about it, but I told them they needed to “suck it up” for there little brother who is 4 and loves Thomas.
Â
The problem with the plan was our 4 year old woke up in the middle of the night and threw up. We bought non-refundable tickets 2 weeks ago, so I wasn’t excited about letting the money go to waist. It turned out he had a cold (my kids throw-up no matter whats wrong with them) so our trip was still on.
Â
We got there and looked around for a while (a little disappointed over how hokey the whole thing was) then got to ride the train. The highlight of the trip! Right after the ride you can go up front and have your picture taken with Thomas.
Â
My nephew Gage, who was the whole reason for the trip had a total melt down and refused to get his picture taken, (in his defense it was really hot, and I think he was overwhelmed) or do anything else. So we loaded up in the car and went home.
Â
Over all it was worth it to go once since the regular train ride is around $24 for kids and $35 for adults and the Thomas event was only $16 a person. I don’t think we will be doing it again, but we have fun memories.
