Day 1

7:30 pm
We left for the station. Our pastor and his wife drove us to Kansas City fro evening chuch. On the way we stopped at a Custard place called Sheridian's. I got a Grasshopper, which is vanilla custard mixed with mint, oreos, and chocolate chips.

Arrive in Kansas City at Union station.in isn't suppose to arrive for a 40 minutes so we wonder around, use the restroom, make a smashed penny. Soon we gather all our luggage up and head to the waiting room.
10:10 pm
Train arrives and we wait as people get off. Suddenly there is a call for us to board and we have to runwn to the platform. My mom, Chosen, and I shared a room. The beds were all own down and it was a tight squeeze as we gt ready for bed.
10:30 pm
The train begins to move. Chosen is excited as it is his first trip on a train (at least the first he can remember.) We call Glory and Melody who are in the next car sharing a room. Their beds are just being put down.
