During Aunt Katie's visit we went to the American History Museum. Currently there is an exhibit on the history of transportation. They have an actual 'L' train from Chicago on display. You can "ride" in it. (It's pretty slick the way they make you feel like you're actually moving.)
Later at home Desmond realized his elephant Elle and the 'L' share a name. So a couple of weeks later we went back so Elle could ride The L.
We also discovered that same exhibit has a train named "Charlotte" on display. Funny coincidence.
As an aside, the restored flag that inspired the Star Spangled Banner is now on display as well. I found it to be incredibly moving - similar to viewing the Declaration of Independence at the National Archives. I highly recommend seeing it.
