Today we journeyed to New Hope again for their annual arts and crafts fair. It was a beautiful fall day and 15-20 degrees cooler than our last trip so we enjoyed it much more! The fair was filled with amazing handmade art (paintings, pottery, jewelry, etc), but was a bit out of our price range. We still have a great time looking at everything. We also stopped by the train station again to watch the "choo choo" leave and watched any duck that we could find anywhere in New Hope! It was a long day and Ellie was such a trooper for still not feeling 100%.
Our first duck spotting of the day!
This video is of Ellie after we watched the ducks above for a while. The jumping and skipping is her attempt to copy them running and jumping into the water when we got near. At the end you'll see her rubbing her face on her arm, which is her attempt to copy their preening. it was adorable!

We've spotted more ducks!
"I just love them so much!"
Still fascinated by the ducks
Ellie and her mama at the train station
As the train left the station....
Ellie and Mama waved at every passenger! Ellie was afraid at first because the train was so loud, but she got braver the further away it got.
After lunch, a very tired Ellie sleeps the entire way home.

Lord, love a duck!
We plan on getting her on that train within the next year! (a bit pricey, so we want her to be old enough to fully enjoy it)

I just love to see Skippy skipping along. She does love animals. It is amazing to see her reaction, and she is SO observant. Can you believe it????
