a family tradition of the Livernois family that they shared with us many years ago...you tell the kids you are going on a "Mystery Ride" and they don't know where they are going until they arrive.
Some kids enjoy the suspense more than others...Micaiah says every few minutes "Just tell me where we are going!" and then he will guess until the secret is revealed. Joshua on the other hand loves the suspense! This is probably the first one that we've done that Eli actually partially got the concept...I think for a while this morning he thought we were going to ride the "ferris wheel" because he was focused on the "ride" part of the title.
Thankfully for Eli's sake there was a ride involved...we took the Metro...

and we made it home with all of the kids!

Fun!! My W loooves to ride the Metro - sometimes the train ride is better than the destination. But the Air & Space Museum is almost as good in his book...
That's quite the adventure taking 4 on the train.
