Last train ride

The kids were happy and sad tonight as it was their last trip to the airport to ride the Skylink train and play around on the secured side. They were happy to get to go stay up late and play on a school night, but sad that it was the last time they'd ride the train. The same kids who just a few months ago told me they were tired of the airport are now telling me they don't want me to quit my job. *sigh* The grass is always greener, I suppose.

Here they are in front of some of the artwork in Terminal D's south ticketing hall.
Stinkerbelle in the maze. It was FINALLY working. Typically, it wasn't working when I took the kids. They LOVED it. It makes noises and lights up at certain times. It was VERY fun.
All three kids loved running through and causing the responses from the lights and sounds.

Hot Rod got mad because he had to pee and I was making him take a picture.
I love the little fro she has going on. She didn't have her clippies in her hair when I went to pick her up from daycare today.
And, the last train ride. Bittersweet, to say the least.

I hope the kids recognize at some point in their lives the historical significance of this project and that they remember how speical it is/was to be a part of it. I know it is something I'll never forget.
