Field Trip July 18th- South Shore

Addison's school has been learning about transportation this week and they had scheduled a field trip to ride the South Shore train.  We took a bus from school to Hudson Lake.  We had packed our lunches and it was raining and there is a nice restaurant called Monroe's Crossing that sits right on the lake that allowed for the kids to come in and eat there lunches before the train arrived.  Thank you to the staff and owners at Monroe's Crossing for being so sweet and allowing this.

Once we were done with lunch, it was time to head to the train stop and wait for the train.  It was 20 minutes late because we had severe thunderstorms that rolled through early that morning and it was backed up in Chicago for an electrical outage. 

As the train arrived, the kids were so happy!  They boarded the train and found their seats and went for the 20 minute ride to the South Bend airport.  It was great to see the kids smiling and learning about transportation.  The rode a bus, train and saw airplanes all in a matter of a few hours!
