On Saturday, we ventured out with the little munchkins for the first time for an all day outing. First up, we went to get dim sum at Top Gun. Evie's always loved ha-gow, but this time she was pretty adventurous and had a great appetite and tried a lot of stuff - she ate 2 ha-gow, 2 siu-mai, dan tat, half a cha sui sow and half a haam suy gowk. Yummy!

After lunch, we headed over to Snoqualamie to the train museum to take a ride on the historic train. It's about a 1.5 hour ride that goes to North Bend and then over to Snoqualamie Falls before heading back into the station. The train itself was pretty rickety - built in 1912 and not very well restored (err…. if you can even call it restored). The scenery on the ride was nothing spectacular until you go to the falls and then it was pretty neat. The train passes the top of the falls and you can see the water rushing down over the side. Since the falls are taller than Niagara Falls, the canyon that it cuts into is pretty deep.
Evie enjoyed the ride, and Nora slept through most of the entire thing and wasn't too fussy. In my book, that's a successful outing!
