Fire-trucking continues

So, you may have stumbled across a certain prominent theme in our blog - when it come to Yo's life, it's all about, "Cars, Trucks and Things that Go". It's no surprise then that when a friend organized a trip to the local fire-station last week, we jumped at the idea.
Evidently, fire-station tours are a regular feature in an American kid's life - poor Indian mommy had no idea and thought the idea was quite novel.
Yohan (and Mika, of course) was part of a group of about 15 kids who trooped into the fire-station. We watched a video together about a doggie fireman and then got to see where the real firemen (and women) cook, watch TV and work out. Then it was off to explore the fire truck which, I think, was Yohan's favorite part.
His least favorite part was quite obvious - when the fireman demonstrated how he put on his gear, donning his oxygen mask, it was clear that Yohan preferred watching "Fireman Sam" on PBS rather than meeting the real, live version. Mommy had to escort him away when the tears started, so there wouldn't be mass two-year-old hysteria.
Funny thing - when I asked him what he liked best about the trip he said, "Woof driving fire-truck" :)
