We took our disabled son about 14 years ago and I have been thinking we need to go again. He loved it especially when Santa came through - his whole face just lit up! We camped at the KOA and I would like to spend more time in Williams. We live in So Cal :) too. We love CA and have had a great life here (originally from NE PA). I've been to 56 NPs and planning to finish in 2023. My son and I enjoy your videos!
Hahaha you wore "the Christmas sweater." That's awesome they got to see snow in the GC of all places. Merry Christmas Josh and co. Even if they don't remember anything, I'm sure they will remember the feeling.
Why am I not surprised that you have a beautiful family! You can tell what a quality person you are it comes across in your videos! Another amazing video you never disappoint! Merry Christmas and Happy New Year to you and your family!!
I loved this! It wasn't around when my kids were kids. I appreciate seeing it with your kids & wife. You can go back when they're about 5 yrs old and they should remember it always!
I will say this looked more fun than the movie haha. My wife and I went to the grand canyon in november and only saw light snow. I wanted to wish you, Pops, and the family a Merry Christmas and Happy Holidays.
What a cool gift there Josh from your in-laws!! Looks like a whole lot of fun and very cool to include an overnight stay. I haven't been but I'd love to check it out one of these years. Great job with the video in showing everything. Hope you all have a great Holiday!!
The Grand Canyon is majestic all year around, but snow adds a certain je ne sais quoi to the sight! I had been to the Grand Canyon more than a dozen times without ever seeing snow, but when I saw the canyon covered in snow, it took my breath away.
WE love the polar express in Williams the last time we went was about 10 years ago and it was only about 40 mins, glad it is a bit longer now! The whole package is great!!
Oh my gosh!! How fun!! What a great experience. Nice to see Amy and the kids, Amy looks great, and the kids are so adorable. Wishing you all a Merry Christmas 🤶 🎅
Looks like an amazing place to visit. The Grand Canyon is just breathtaking. Cute to see the family having fun and enjoying the holiday. The Polar Express is all about the train, less about the views. Thanks for sharing. Merry Christmas to you and yours.
I went with 2 of my grandsons 3 years ago. Oldest at that time was 9 yrs old and the youngest was 2. I agree, 2 was too young. We live in Indiana and we went to the Polar Express in Connersville about an hour from Indianapolis. All the adults wore PJ's as did the kids. We all had fun, but wish my youngest was older at that time.
Thanks for sharing! It brings back memories when I would travel with my young nephews who are now in college. Makes me think I should take my great nieces and nephews and my current godchildren. Have a wonderful happy safe prosperous holiday season! Really enjoying your Videos!
So cool-we did the one in St Louis, and I agree that the staff were incredibly fun and entertaining for the kids. It’s not something I would do without kids-not exactly a date night or ladies night out type of event. Lol but definitely fun with little ones who still Believe! 🎉
Merry Christmas to you and your family. I found your channel this past year and have enjoyed all of your travel and videos. All the best to you in 2023. Steve R.
Merry Christmas! As a twin parent, I remember the hectic toddler days. You'd be surprised what they might remember. We are not fans of the movie (kids always thought it was creepy and weird) so we never did the train ride. However, seeing this video I think we might go sometime! Enjoy your Christmas.
That looks like a lot of fun for the kids, what a great gift from your in-laws. Your wife is beautiful, and the twins are adorable! We have (grown) twins too, identical girls. Yours are at such a busy age! Our son was 22 months old when his sisters were born, so craziness haha! So well worth it though, enjoy your wonderful family! ❤
Merry Christmas y'all! Bet you will have a FABulous time. Interesting getaway - I'd guess 4+ would love this - I guess a good way to gauge, would be what's your kid's attention span? As you said hour & half is a long time in a two-year old's world! But I bet they'll still remember it - def take them back in a few years & trying taking them down the Canyon a little, just to get an idea of the SIZE of the thing. Be very difficult for a little one to judge that! Happy Christmas Josh & Family from Tasmania!
hahah! It is nice to have a break every once in a while. We love taking them on adventures too, here is one we did to Yosemite National Park - ruclips.net/video/wYbPjrDiKDE/видео.html
I pray the new laws do not interfere with your already filmed content. I have traveled so many wonderful places with you and you dad. As well as other RUclipsrs. I worry about your future. I also feel this is An opportunity to create amazing state park content. 😆 just an idea. Which I can’t wait to see you continue to grow. Merry Christmas to you all!
Travelled to Grand Canyon from UK, not sure what is wrong with me, but was not awe inspired, regret not going down into the canyon to experience it a little better. Love America though🙂
I kinda binge watched your videos today and recollected some of the places I been that you and your dad went. Enjoyed them but it kept bugging me you call state lines borders. I always considered Borders surrounding country's not states?
I'm not really sure how much ours was since it was a Christmas present but you can see ticket prices for next year here - www.thetrain.com/events/polar-express-season-next/
I thought that at first too but when you yelled into it it made the colors go up showing how much Christmas cheer you had. Unfortunately Sunny wasn't loud enough to register haha
I always feel comforted after spending time on your channel. Your videos make me feel like I'm traveling with you.

Glad you enjoyed it! Merry Christmas!
Merry Christmas to you all from England and all the best in 2023. 🌲🎅🏼🇬🇧🇺🇸
Hahaha you wore "the Christmas sweater." That's awesome they got to see snow in the GC of all places. Merry Christmas Josh and co. Even if they don't remember anything, I'm sure they will remember the feeling.
Merry Christmas to you as well! I have like 5 ugly Christmas sweaters, I love wearing them this time of year haha
Why am I not surprised that you have a beautiful family! You can tell what a quality person you are it comes across in your videos! Another amazing video you never disappoint! Merry Christmas and Happy New Year to you and your family!!
Aww, you are very kind to saw that. Thanks for the comment and Merry Christmas!
Totally agree!!
I loved this! It wasn't around when my kids were kids. I appreciate seeing it with your kids & wife. You can go back when they're about 5 yrs old and they should remember it always!
So cute seeing your kiddos!! You are so blessed!!

I never even saw the movie haha, I meant to watch it before I went but time got the best of me
@@ThroughMyLens you lucked out on that one haha
Thanks for visiting our town. Glad you enjoyed Polar. You are right about rim to rim - it’s the best hike!
What a cool gift there Josh from your in-laws!! Looks like a whole lot of fun and very cool to include an overnight stay. I haven't been but I'd love to check it out one of these years.
Great job with the video in showing everything. Hope you all have a great Holiday!!
Yea it was not something I had on my radar but it was a fun time
Looks like so much fun and it was my first time seeing snow in the canyon! Thanks for sharing!
So excited to see what you'll accomplish in 2023!
The Grand Canyon is majestic all year around, but snow adds a certain je ne sais quoi to the sight! I had been to the Grand Canyon more than a dozen times without ever seeing snow, but when I saw the canyon covered in snow, it took my breath away.
The twins are so adorable!

Thank you so much for your always insightful and visually stunning videos, have a wonderful Christmas and New Year's from the UK 🇬🇧
Thank you! You too!
What a fun thing for your lovely family to be able to do! Thank you for sharing this and all of your videos with us. Merry Christmas!
I love the polar express, it is my favourite Christmas movie!😍🎄🎉🚅
Been there, amazing experience.Hey! Bring your kids in Ice Castle, Utah too.. heading on the 31st. Hello from Fontana, California!
We miss having this train almost in our backyard. Now we live 22 hrs a away.
Oh my gosh!! How fun!! What a great experience. Nice to see Amy and the kids, Amy looks great, and the kids are so adorable. Wishing you all a Merry Christmas 🤶 🎅
Thanks for the comment! I let Amie know that you said she looked great and she appreciated it! Glad you enjoyed the video
Josh, that was a lovely gift. Thank you for sharing the experience with us. Have a blessed, beautiful holiday.💚🙏🏼🎄🙏🏼❤️🚂
Beautiful video.. Beautiful family. Stay blessed..
Next time you do this trip with the kids, take them to the North Pole experience in Flagstaff. The kids will have a blast.
We we to the matter point for sunrise in October. It was amazing! Beautiful with the snow!
I bet sunrise there would be incredible

I went to the Grand Canyon in early November and there was snow on the ground at that time too, looks like it was a nice family adventure.
Sweet experience
Merry Christmas to you and your awesome family, Josh! And hope you have a prosperous New Year! 🎄🙌🏼🎅
Thank you Violet, always appreciate it!
It's pretty neat.
You stop at all the coolest places. Best. Dad. Ever.
haha appreciate that!
My new idea polar Express inflatable or led in Walmart
Thanks for sharing! It brings back memories when I would travel with my young nephews who are now in college.
Makes me think I should take my great nieces and nephews and my current godchildren.
Have a wonderful happy safe prosperous holiday season! Really enjoying your Videos!
Thanks for much fro the comment and I am glad it brought back good memories! I am sure your great nieces and nephews would have a great time
Seems like a fun activity for kids
Merry Christmas! This looked like a great family adventure!

That looks so fun!❤️❤️
Nice video
Merry Christmas
Beautiful family!
Thank you!
Merry Christmas you guys!!🎄
Same to you!
When they get older, take them to Michigan to ride the REAL Polar Express. The Pierre Marquette 1225 that inspired the book.
Merry Christmas y'all! Bet you will have a FABulous time. Interesting getaway - I'd guess 4+ would love this - I guess a good way to gauge, would be what's your kid's attention span?

You too!
Two year old twins. Now I know why you hit the road with Pops. Merry Christmas

haha I know what you mean, I do feel like my appreciate grew immensely when I hiked through it
Only one Polar Express I know of and it’s not even close to AZ. ……Bryson City. NC …😊
3:12 brewed awakening lolz
Thinking of buying tickets for this December how many days did you do and what tickets did you purchase coach or first class?
I kinda binge watched your videos today and recollected some of the places I been that you and your dad went. Enjoyed them but it kept bugging me you call state lines borders. I always considered Borders surrounding country's not states?
Never back up
I hope they give the kids a golden ticket to ride The Polar Express like in the cartoon. That would be cool.
They did get a golden ticket!
@@ThroughMyLens Very nice.
Awesome video as always. How was the food @06:27? Haha
haha not the best 😂
Merry Christmas everyone!
You too!
Is the same train as the North Pole experience? Or is this a different train
How’s the price goes? Is the price different for Christmas and other days, I assume?
I'm not really sure how much ours was since it was a Christmas present but you can see ticket prices for next year here - www.thetrain.com/events/polar-express-season-next/
Your son did the old Clark Griswold - look and shake your head up and down - I'm done it's a view.
haha he totally did 😂 turned around and said "all done"
Is it mandatory you wear a hideous Christmas sweater to get on that train?
They encourage you to wear pajamas but I didn't have Christmas pajamas so I just went with an ugly Christmas sweater
@@ThroughMyLens I was just kidding about the sweater - I'd be doing the same thing.
Wasn't that a speaker..not a microphone..lol
I thought that at first too but when you yelled into it it made the colors go up showing how much Christmas cheer you had. Unfortunately Sunny wasn't loud enough to register haha
@ThroughMyLens They rigged it that way, but it is an old fashion 'speaker' (think it has another name) to listen to records..
@@laurieann5312 Oh yea, good catch, you are right! Funny how they made that work
why are you saying alpaca like that?
Not gonna lie! Uncle Travis is hot. ❤❤
nice bro???
please make more children
First
👍
