I did too so we decide to head home. Dont want to wreck a perfect day.
Well I had fun hope you did too till next trip enjoy life and be safe.
And remember when the weatherman says its going to be cloudy and rainy he is normally lying. But the train gods love a laugh so they will torment you all day untill you give up.
