Public Transport, with 3

For the AIDS walk in June, we decided to take the train into Boston.  We forgot to look up the schedule, so we missed the fact that half the train was down for the weekend.  This made it so we had to get on the train for part of the ride, then get off and take a bus for 3 stops, then get back on the train again, then get back off at our destination.  Try that.... while toting 3 kids, a double stroller, a diaper bag, a day pack, water, etc.  Then take the temperature up to a humid sticky 90 degree feel, and you get 5 cranky people! 

By the time we actually got to the start of the walk, we felt like we did it already..... and were ready to just lay in the grass and go to sleep! We walked about half the walk and called it quits. 
 Here's me and Vince, trying to make the best of it, still relatively happy
 Vince and Zoë always love train rides
This was the aftermath of the day.  Zoë had enough and fell asleep, Mike was DONE.
