« Carnival of Homeschooling, Week 113 | Main | Fun in Las Vegas »
We May Be Country Bumpkins...maybe....
Today we went to pick up Daniel from the Roanoke airport. When we 'go to town', we mostly go to Lynchburg which is 2/3 the size of Roanoke. So going to Roanoke is always a bit different. Anyway, we went to the airport today and when we went in to meet Daniel, Katrina noted the escalator. It has been awhile since she has seen one. In fact, airports and a couple of the high end department stores are the only places around here that one can find this marvelous invention.
So the up escalator was busted, but the kids didn't care. They happily ran up the stairs in the middle and went down the escalator a 1/2 dozen times before Daniel appeared. Now, I know the place to take them for exercise!
Katrina also wanted to go through the revolving door, but we skipped that fun this time...
I just wish I had had my camera! The rapture on Katrina's face was priceless!
The one and only time the girls have ever seen an escalator was when we took them to the Chattanooga Aquarium. They wanted to keep "riding" them over and over. It was so funny. I tried to get a picture but it was too dark.
