Worth The Wait

While on vacation, we took our grandchildren (plus the other adults accompanying them, AKA their parents) to a popular burger joint known for its great ambiance for children. This restaurant's claim to fame is the toy train track that runs around the bar, bringing the food and beverage orders to those lucky enough to get seated at the bar area. When the kitchen has a lull in order activity, the train runs around the track carrying stuffed animals while blowing its whistle, and this year's newest attraction - train cars that produce bubbles as the train moves.

After your meal, there are outdoor activities a-plenty, all without charge, sure to keep even the most active of children and adults busy and occupied. You can peddle these massive bicycle-contraptions that will hold four, you can shoot baskets in the world's funkiest basketball court ever, you can enjoy ice cream cones outside, or your kids can climb in and out, over and under playground equipment that looks like trains.

You may have to wait a while to be seated at the bar, or, you can feed your hunger earlier than most and have no difficulty in sitting at the bar. Whichever time table you and your family are on, the whole experience is worth the wait!

Just ask my grandchildren!
