An afternoon with the girls

Last week, I took Kelsey & Kamryn, their cousin, Megan, and Kamryn's friend, Havana, on an afternoon excursion to downtown Phoenix. We drove over to Christown Mall, got on the new light rail train and rode down to central Phoenix. We then walked a couple of blocks to the Arizona Center and went to a movie. Hotel for Dogs. Great movie, very entertaning for kids and adults. After the movie, we walked back to the light rail and rode back to Christown Mall and then headed for home.


The girls seemed to all have a good time. The light rail ride down was fairly uneventful. Not a lot of people heading downtown that time of day. I have to say that the ride was actually quite nice. The train cars haven't been tagged or busted up, yet.

Here is a picture of the girls at the light rail station when we got off in downtown Phoenix.

I thought this picture was pretty funny. I told Carey about it. Now I'm thinking that maybe I'm the only one that thinks it's funny.

On the ride home, we were joined on the light rail by different groups of ASU students who were participating in some type of a scavenger hunt. Many of them were dressed up in different costumes, most quite odd. One guy in one of the groups had a huge, fake, black afro looking thing. The girls, who up to that point had been pretty energetic, were stunned into silence. I secretly took this photo, which doesn't give you a good appreciation of what he looked like, but you get the idea.
It was a great afternoon.
