I heard that going at night was best because that’s when it’s all lit up of course, but now that I went I would do it totally different.
Â
Our train ride was scheduled for 6 pm and we got on a little early at 5:45 pm. I was prepared for a cute train ride with holiday lights. I knew there was supposed to be a Santa’s Village after the train ride with activities for the kids and photos with Santa if you wanted. HOWEVER, I was slightly wrong.
Â
The train ride is cute and there are pretty lights .. but its main purpose is to drop you off at “The North Pole” where you will wait in the freezing cold to take photos with Santa. Then, the train will pick you back up (an hour later) and you will see a few more lights and drops you back at the start. Which is Santa’s village where you can do all of the cute kid activities.
AND HERE’S WHERE WE WENT WRONG…

2. I didn’t pack a diaper bag for a 15-minute train ride… Little did I know we were being dropped off. The baby SH*T his diaper. Of course, he did!
I went to check his diaper and got poop on my finger UGH. So now I’m out in the cold waiting for this train to pick us up with a stinky kid and poop finger. OH JOY!! lol
3. By the time we got back to the village, the kids were cold and tired and wanted to go home. So, therefore, we did not partake in any of the cute activities.
