Come meet us at the Fullerton Station and we'll train-pool :)

Or take the Blue-Line up to Union Station and then pick up the Pacific Surfliner from there (that's the train we're taking). Unfortunately, there are no stops between Union Station and Fullerton.

Thanks for considering the school night implications. Everything fun is past my bedtime.

I considered taking the train until I realized that the time it would take me to drive to Fullerton could be better spent driving directly to SJC.

Then there's my memory of the last time I took that train. Many years ago I was attending a mommy and me class with the kid and the group decided to take the train from Fullerton to San Clemente to give the kids the train experience and the beach experience. There were about 30 moms with 30 three and four year olds. Imagine what it was like when we all got back on the train that afternoon, cranky and covered with sand. You have no idea...:eek:

I don't know where you live, but the train (the Amtrak Pacific Surfliner) actually stops at Union Station. It originates in San Luis Obispo with stops in Moorpark, Simi Valley and a couple in the SF Valley.

I was looking at the schedule. It even stops in Glendale - an awesome little station less than ten minutes from our place...

We're out. Bill is being a poopy-head.

The Mouse says I can't come out and play.....hopefully another time.

So, has the updated schedule been altered at all or is it still accurate?

One thing I might suggest is that the barn is a pretty big place. Squeezing that in, along with Los Rios Street and the petting zoo, in the confines of an hour is perhaps a bit ... ambitious. :)

I can't make it. Sorry, have fun!

5 at Ortega, looks easy :)

I think I'm going to be taking the train :)

It's going to be a very interesting couple of days for me, a leisurely day of riding the train sound like a sensible way to start. Much better than the hours in the car that I was faced with.

I'll be up bright and early for a train around 9AM. It'll get me down there early, but that's the only train that stops at Orange Depot. I'd have many more options at the Anaheim station, which isn't far, but catching a train at Orange Depot has been on my list since we moved here, so early it is. I'll bring reading/listening/expressing material.

I'm excited, see you all there. :tiki:
