First we started off by riding the Metro into Illinois to see the Air Show (hence the train part). There were lots of fun planes, civilian and military planes... mommy and I sat in a helicopter! 
We also saw lots of planes flying around and some even did lots of tricks. Unfortunately most of them were REALLY LOUD... I didn't like that part so much! One of the guys on the flight crew gave me some cool neon green earplugs.
These were daddy's favorites.. the Thunderbirds.
This was a stunt plane, there is actually someone standing on top of it while it went upside down!!
I was tired, so earplugs in I decided to take a nap...
We headed back to Missouri and got off the train at Forest Park. It was a short walk to Central Field where all the balloons were getting ready to air up. We waited about two hours, so we found lots of things to occupy ourselves...
Finally it was time to see the balloons!
These two bumped into each other... OOPS!
See the one shaped like a Pepsi can???
Wow, what a fun day... I was exhausted by the time I got home!!
