Anyone go on the Polar Express?

ArcticFox

We have a Polar Express train ride near us, that runs Nov and December.  The kids wear their PJs, it is a 2 hr ride that takes them to the 'North Pole'.

DD is very excited, she is 4.5, but with the ticket prices (like $50+ for an adult in the good seats) and a squirmy 2 year old, I am thinking of staying home with my 2 year old.

Any experience, thoughts, recommendations?

I wish we were going.  I just tried to buy tickets for our Polar Express and they are sold out already.  I called and they said the tickets went on sale on Labor Day and they have been sold out for a while.  I was really looking forward to going this year.  I think your 2 year old would enjoy it too.  I know when DS was 2, he would have loved a train ride, but $50 is very expensive.

We're taking Elyse for the first time!   I"m so excited, I think she's gonna love it!

We're leaving Chase with my parents for the afternoon and spending it with just her.   Gonna take her out to eat and then on the train ride!   Can't wait!  We bought our tickets back in August already!

We have been every year since DS was born (my Dad takes his whole family...8 kids!). It's a blast. That being said it's good b/c we are with a bunch of family and we have a fun time together. We sing songs and they bring hot cocoa and cookies. Our tickets are much less $$ though.

I would say go if you have a group of friends/family that want to go too and if your LO can sit and play/enjoy the trip.

I just got tickets.  We are getting a sitter for DS2 so we can have some quality time with DS1.  He needs it and I am so excited!

I am so excited right now.  I had no idea this existed.  I just did a search and we have one a couple of hours from here.  Booking for the weekend of Thanksgiving.  I am going to leave the baby with my parents.  No advice, just wanted to thank you for the suggestion!
