This year Kearney did a new "thing." There are a few trolley's that drive around Kearney for special events. Well, this year the city decided to do the Polar Express. We had to
preorder our tickets and they were sent to us in the mail. As we boarded the trolley a
ticket master punched our tickets a billion times (just like in the movie, except our
ticket master didn't spell cool words in them.) The kids were able to wear their pajamas and we all got a cookie and a cup of hot cocoa.
Our kids picked the very last seat on the trolley.
As we drove through Kearney a volunteer helper read the story. We unfortunately couldn't hear a word of it...but the kids didn't mind since we were headed to the North Pole.
The North Pole turned out to be at a park on the south edge of town. They had this little hut thing for Mr. Santa Clause to wait in.
Hopefully he got a heater in there too.
Once we pulled up to the "North Pole" Santa came onto the trolley, talked with each child, and gave them all a bell. The kids were a bit sad that the North Pole was still in Kearney, but it was a fun family activity.
