I knew this part of summer was going to be busy, but it's been absolutely chaotic! But fun. G and I wrapped up our summer 5-movie adventure...we finished it off with Minions and Monsters, and then Spider-Man. It was such a fun activity that we looked forward to all summer! My mom, Arya, and I spent several days in Chicago recently. We took the Amtrak, which was a new method of transportation for us, and we learned so much about the rails. I would do things a little differently next time if we take the train again, but I'm so glad that we tried something new! Day 1: Wednesday, July 29 We started off the day with breakfast in St. Paul while we waited for our train (which was four hours delayed... yikes!) The train ride was uneventful, but we were all very happy to get to Chicago. We didn't eat dinner until 10:30pm that night. Thank goodness for DoorDash! Union Depot in St Paul Here we go! Crossing in Hastings Winona! I think this was in La Crosse? It's the Mississippi Riv...
