Down in the basement

Sending faxes

Arriving at the Hancock center

The train display is still mesmerizing

Big railroid sign

Eating at Cheesecake Factory

Back to the train

Jack "earned" Emily on the potty!

City at night

With flash!

Jack checking out the city

Jack and Mommy

Cleaning windows on the Hancock building

Ahhhh - it's windy out here!

Looking north

Where Mommy and Daddy once lived

Night sky

Tain on the brain

Everyone has the same idea

Jack liked the turndown service

At the No. 1 Blue Engine store

Riding the train in the store

Quite a setup

Somewhat dazed by all the excitement

Another train setup - this one at the hotel

A winter wonderland train

Can you see Santa way at the top?

We stayed here quite a while

Beautiful tree

Jack by Mickey

Angels over the tree

OK, back to the train

Picket fences don't encumber Jack

The tree was just so beautiful

We had quite a nice track setup in the room

Proud of his setupl

Mommy by the tree - no one would stand with her!
