Edaville Railroad

Today we took Henry on his first trip to Edaville Railroad.



This is a former cranberry plantation that has a 5 1/2 mile train loop around it (previously used to haul the cranberries). They still have cranberry bogs surrounding it, but now Edaville is a small family amusement park, with an emphasis on trains. Naturally, we knew our little train lover would enjoy it.

Henry went on LOTS of rides. The Red Baron:


The tilt-a-whirl:



The Ferris Wheel (this is the view from the top - I managed very few photos seeing as how I am afraid of heights and thus had a death grip on Henry and the bar in front of me the entire time):


The miniature train:



The handcars:



The Flying Caterpillar:



And the flying elephants:



Along with many more.

The kid is fearless. Anything that went really fast, really high, or spun in such a way as to make you sick just thinking about it he LOVED.

They also had a fun indoor play area with lots of train tables and model trains:




A "cranberry bog" ball pit:


An indoor maze:


And, randomly, Humpty Dumpty:



The biggest draw for him, of course, was the train ride:







Henry had a fabulous time - it is definitely worth a repeat trip at some point!
