Today’s subject was trains, trains, and more trains. We started out at Union Station which is somewhat like a mall, Amtrak Station, and childrens’ museum all in one. Managed to catch a view of an incoming train with a cargo of automobiles.
Ventured over to the Crown Plaza mall for lunch at Frtiz’s Railroad Restaurant where your food is delivered by model trains (someone’s video is here). Interesting concept. The food wasn’t all that good, but you’re really paying for the atmosphere so I can’t complain.
Afterwards we saw a Lego’s exhibit, visited a candy store, and then drove to the Plaza. The Plaza is like Rodeo Drive with alot of rich shopping centers.
Drove down State Street which the Kansas and Missouri borders connect.
Tomorrow we go to Wichita, Greensburg, and Dodge City. Long drive, good weather predicted…
