Santa had left his busy workshop in the North Pole for a special pre-christmas visit to Thirlmere so we decided to take the kids, including Jade. The kids got to meet Santa onboard the 45 minute train ride and tell him all their wishes for christmas. Unfortunately for Santa it was a stinking hot day reaching 41 degrees !

We had a picnic lunch followed by a look around the Heritage Rail Museum, where the kids got to explore NSW’s largest collection of heritage trains – all interactive and working which was great!
