Grandma and Grandpa Visit Day 3, Royal Gorge Tour

On Sunday, the third day of G'pa and G'ma's visit we went to the Royal Gorge in Canon City, Colorado. http://www.royalgorgebridge.com/. It was a long day but we had a great time. We started with touring the Royal Gorge Bridge. After lunch we went on a 2 hour train ride down the gorge. http://www.royalgorgeroute.com/ Here are some photos. I will apologize in advance that the whole day isn't posted here, but here are some of them. We took over 100 photos in this one day and I couldn't post them all. Hopefully you can still follow along with the days events. Check it out!

There is a train like contraption that you can ride from the top of the gorge to the bottom. This is Oliver waiting in line to get on it. Here he is snuggling his Dad.

Family photo at the bottom of the gorge by the Arkansas River.They had a petting zoo and a "wide animal" exhibit. Among the wild animals where a heard of buffalo. This white one was kind enough to stand next to the fence for a photo. Notice Oliver isn't afraid. He sticks his tongue out at the big white beast!

What a great family photo op.
The carousel was included in admission, so Oliver had his first carousel ride! He wasn't in the mood for much other than a nap at this point but he went along for the ride anyway.
Oliver seems to think that a shoulder ride from Mom is a great time to get a good grip on all of her blond locks.Now we are on the train. This is a view from the bottom of the gorge from the outside train car.
