BUDDY ALREADY SAID THAT.

AND--DOUBLE SURPRISE--YOUR MOM AND I ALSO THINK YOU KIDS CAN TRAVEL ON THE DINOSAUR TRAIN BY YOURSELVES.
YOU'’’LL BE TRAVELING WITHOUT US FOR THE VERY FIRST TIME.
>> REALLY, DAD?
>> REALLY, TINY.
WE SPOKE TO THE CONDUCTOR AND GRANDMA AND GRANDPA.
AND IT'’’S ALL WORKED OUT.
>> YOU'’’LL BE THE CONDUCTOR'’’S SPECIAL GUESTS TODAY.
HE'’’LL BE WITH YOU THE WHOLE TIME YOU'’’RE ON THE TRAIN.

AND THEY'’’LL TAKE YOU BACK TO THEIR NEST.
HOW DO YOU FEEL ABOUT THAT?

WHOO-HOO!

WHAT ARE WE WAITING FOR?
>> TO THE DINOSAUR TRAIN!
>> WHOO-HOO!
>> YEAH!
>> ALL RIGHT!
>> GOOD MORNING, PTERANODON CLAN.
>> HELLO, MR.
CONDUCTOR.
>> BIG DAY, HUH, KIDS?
TRAVELING WITHOUT YOUR MOM AND DAD FOR THE VERY FIRST TIME?
>> YEAH!
>> WHOO-HOO!
>> I'’’M A GROWNUP.
>> THEN WELCOME ABOARD, MY SPECIAL GUESTS.
DON'’’T WORRY, MR. AND MRS. PTERANODON.
EVERYTHING WILL BE HUNKY DORY.
>> THANKS, MR.
CONDUCTOR.
NOW, KIDS, LISTEN TO THE CONDUCTOR AND BE NICE TO HIM AND TO EACH OTHER.
>> AND TO GRANDMA AND GRANDPA.
SAY "PLEASE" AND "THANK YOU."
>> ALL ABOARD!
[TRAIN WHISTLE BLOWS] >> BYE, MOM AND DAD!
>> [WEAKLY] AWK.
>> THANKS FOR LOOKING AFTER US, MR.
CONDUCTOR.
>> HAPPY TO DO IT, BUDDY, MY BUDDY.
>> YOU KNOW, I COULD LOOK AFTER US KIDS SINCE MOM AND DAD AREN'’’T HERE.
>> I COULD, TOO.
I CAN BE MOM OR DAD.
>> NOT BETTER THAN ME.
I'’’M BETTER AT PLAYING MOM.
>> ALL RIGHT.
I KNOW IT'’’S EXCITING TO BE TAKING THIS TRIP, BUT LET'’’S GET ALONG, SHALL WE?
HA HA.
I'’’LL BE THE MOM AND DAD ON THE TRAIN FOR YOU KIDS TODAY.
SO WHO KNOWS WHERE YOUR GRANDPARENTS LIVE?
>> AWK!
SOMEWHERE IN APPALACHIA.
>> CORRECT.
LET'’’S TAKE A LOOK AT A MAP.
YOU LIVE HERE ON THE LARAMIDIA SIDE OF THE WESTERN INTERIOR SEA WHILE YOUR GRANDMA AND GRANDPA LIVE ON THE OTHER SIDE IN APPALACHIA, WHICH IS HOME TO MANY CREATURES, THOUGH NONE AS HUGE AS WHAT WE HAVE IN LARAMIDIA.
>> WHAT KIND OF CREATURES LIVE THERE?
>> WELL, ONE EXAMPLE OF A RATHER LARGE APPALACHIAN CREATURE IS THE HADROSAURUS.
>> OH, RIGHT!
WE MET A HADROSAURUS ONCE.
>> MISTER THE CONDUCTOR, IS IT A LONG RIDE TO APPALACHIA?
>> PRETTY LONG.
BUT YOU KIDS CAN PASS THE TIME IN THE DINING CAR.
WE'’’VE PREPARED SOME SPECIAL TREATS FOR TODAY--DOUBLE-DOUBLE FISHWICHES.
AND FOR YOU, BUDDY, TODAY WE OFFER CARRION ON A LONGER STICK.
>> WHOO-HOO!
>> TO THE DINING CAR!
[ALL SPEAKING EXCITEDLY] >> HANG ON TO YOUR TAILS, FOLKS.
WE'’’RE HEADED OUT TO SEA!
NEXT STOP, PTERANODON TRAIL STATION.
PTERANODON TRAILS ON THE SUN COAST OF APPALACHIA.
>> OOH!
>> YUP.
THAT'’’S YOUR STOP, KIDS.
>> AWK!
LET'’’S GO SEE IF GRANDMA AND GRANDPA ARE WAITING FOR US.
>> GRANDMA AND GRANDPA!
>> WELL, HOW GOOD TO SEE YOU!
>> HI, KIDS, YOU MADE IT.
THANK YOU, MR.
CONDUCTOR.
>> YOU'’’RE WELCOME.
AND NICE TO SEE YOU.
ALL RIGHT, THEN.
HAVE A GREAT TIME TOGETHER.
I'’’LL SEE YOU LATER TODAY.

>> HELLO!
>> WHAT AN AMAZING VIEW.
IT'’’S LIKE HOME, ONLY FACING THE OTHER WAY.
>> I KNOW!
I CAN'’’T WAIT TO FISH.
>> I WANT TO SEE EVERYTHING.
HEY, LET'’’S EXPLORE THIS CAVE.
>> DON, COME OUT OF THERE, PLEASE.
>> OOH!
A BUG.
>> HEY, DID YOU FIND ANY MORE OVER THERE, DON?
>> [GULP] MM!
MM!
>> ALL RIGHT, BUG EATERS.
COME JOIN US OVER HERE BY THE NEST.
I WANT TO HEAR ABOUT YOUR TRIP.
HOW WAS THE RIDE HERE WITHOUT MOM AND DAD?
>> IT WAS GREAT.
>> YEAH, EXCEPT FOR THE "WITHOUT MOM AND DAD" PART.
BUT THE CONDUCTOR WATCHED US.
>> SO WHAT ARE YOUR FAVORITE THINGS ABOUT THE DINOSAUR TRAIN?
>> I LOVE LOOKING OUT THE WINDOWS AT EVERYTHING.
>> AND RIDING WITH THE CONDUCTOR.
I LIKE WHEN HE SAYS "ALL ABOARD!"
>> I LIKE THE OBSERVATION CAR.
>> I LIKE THE DINING CAR.
>> OH!
THOSE ARE ALL MY FAVORITE THINGS ABOUT THE TRAIN.
YOU KNOW, A LONG TIME AGO WHEN MRS.
CONDUCTOR WAS IN CHARGE, HER LITTLE SONNY BOY RAN AROUND THE CARS LIKE YOU KIDS DO NOW.
>> AH, REMEMBER THE FIRST DAY THE DINING CAR OPENED?
>> YOU WERE THERE?
>> WELL, I SURE WAS!
I HAD THEIR VERY FIRST FISHWICH.
>> DON LOVES FISHWICHES, RIGHT, DON?
UH, DON?
>> DON, GRANDMA AND GRANDPA TOLD YOU NOT TO GO INTO THE CAVE.
>> HEH HEH.
SO YOU LIKE FISHWICHES, HUH, DON?
>> YEAH!
>> SO DID YOUR DAD WHEN HE WAS YOUR SIZE.
>> WAIT.
DAD WAS MY SIZE?
OH, YEAH, I FORGOT.
HE WAS A KID ONCE.
>> GRANDMA AND GRANDPA, DO YOU HAVE ANY OF DAD'’’S OLD COLLECTION FROM WHEN HE WAS A KID?
>> WE SURE DO.
>> BACK THERE IN THE CAVE.
>> YOU HAVE DAD'’’S OLD COLLECTION IN A CAVE?!
[GRANDMA AND GRANDPA LAUGH] >> ALL RIGHT, DON.
NOW WE CAN EXPLORE THE CAVE.
LET'’’S GO LOOK AT YOUR DAD'’’S COLLECTION.
FEATHERS!
THIS ONE IS FROM A TROODON.
THIS ONE'’’S A MICRORAPTOR'’’S.
>> THAT'’’S A GREAT FUNNY-SHAPED ROCK.
>> OH, YOUR DAD LOVED FUNNY-SHAPED ROCKS.
IF YOU LIKE ROCKS, GET A LOAD OF THIS.
>> OOH!
IT'’’S AMBER, JUST LIKE I HAVE AT HOME.
THAT MUST BE YOUR FAVORITE THING IN THE WHOLE COLLECTION.
>> NO.
MY FAVORITE THING IN THE COLLECTION IS THIS LITTLE FISH SKELETON.
IT'’’S FROM THE FIRST FISH THAT YOUR DAD EVER CAUGHT.
>> WHOA!
>> WE KEEP IT IN HERE WITH THE OTHER FISH BONES.
>> RIGHT.
AND TEETH GO HERE, ROCKS GO HERE.
>> AND FEATHERS GO HERE.
>> DO YOU KNOW THAT GROUPING THINGS TOGETHER LIKE THAT HAS A SPECIAL NAME?
>> CLASSIFICATION?
>> RIGHT!
OH, THAT'’’S A VERY BIG WORD.
YOU KIDS ARE SO SMART.
YOUR DAD USED TO LOVE PLAYING WITH THIS WHEN HE WAS A BABY.
[RATTLE] >> AW!
BABY DADDY PLAYING WITH HIS "WITTLE" BABY TOY.
[KIDS LAUGH] >> WHAT ABOUT THESE TEETH?
>> I BELIEVE THOSE ARE THE FIRST TEETH YOUR DAD EVER FOUND.
>> MAYBE THEY'’’RE T. REX TEETH.
>> DO THEY LOOK LIKE MINE?
>> OH, NO.
I THINK THEY'’’RE FROM AN ALLOSAURUS.
LOOK... AH!
I'’’M AN ALLOSAURUS.
I HAVE TEETH.
>> OH, GRANDPA.
>> AWK!
I'’’M GLAD YOU SAVED SO MANY OF DAD'’’S THINGS.
>> PARENTS LIKE TO SAVE THINGS FROM THEIR KIDS.
IT FEELS GOOD TO HOLD ON TO PIECES OF YOUR PAST.
AND SOME THINGS WE SAVE JUST BECAUSE THEY'’’RE SO PRETTY.
>> YEAH!
LIKE THESE SHELLS.
>> HMM, MAY I SEE ONE OF THOSE SHELLS, SHINY?
>> WHOA!
WHERE'’’D IT GO?
>> YEAH--OOH!
HA.
THERE IT IS.
[KIDS LAUGH] >> DO IT AGAIN!
>> WELL, HA HA!
OK. OOPS!
IT'’’S GONE.
OH, WELL.
LA-DI-LOU.
HERE IT IS.
>> THAT'’’S PRETTY FUNNY, GRANDPA.
>> HUH.
I'’’M GLAD YOU THINK SO.
>> HEY, GRANDPA, WHAT ELSE DO YOU KEEP HERE IN THE CAVE?
>> OH, WE KEEP ALL KINDS OF THINGS IN HERE--BIG LEAVES, STICKS.
>> WHAT DO YOU USE THOSE STICKS FOR?
>> WELL, THEY'’’RE FOR A GAME YOUR DAD REALLY LOVED TO PLAY AS A KID.
YOU SEE, YOU THROW THE STICKS UP IN THE AIR AND-- >> AWK!
YOU MEAN TOSS AND CATCH?
>> HERE IT COMES.
>> YEAH!
>> GREAT CATCH, TINY!
OH, HO!
NICE ONE, DON.
OH, LOOKING GOOD, SHINY.
GREAT TOSSING, BUDDY.
OK, NOW, HERE'’’S A TRICK, BUDDY.
YOU WATCH ME TOSS AND CATCH 3 STICKS BEFORE THEY HIT THE WATER.
HA HA!
HO!
>> YAY, GRANDPA!
WHOO-HOO!
>> [BREATHING HEAVILY] OK. AND NOW I'’’M A LITTLE POOPED.
LET'’’S TAKE A BREATHER ON THE BEACH.
>> GRANNA, I'’’M HUNGRY.
CAN WE FISH?
>> I THINK WE'’’RE ALL HUNGRY.
YES.
LET'’’S FISH.
>> YAY!
>> HA HA.
BUDDY AND I WILL BE THE SPOTTERS.
TINY, SHINY, AND DON, YOU FOLLOW GRANDMA.
>> AWK!
I'’’LL SHOW YOU HOW TO FISH APPALACHIAN STYLE.
WHOO-HOO!
>> WAY TO GO, GRANDMA!
WHOO-HOO!
>> WHOO!
BEST TASTING FISH EVER!
>> YEAH.
EVEN I LIKE THEM.
>> WELL, GRANDMA, THE SUN'’’S GETTING LOW.
NOW WE SHOULD BE MOSEYING OVER TO THE STATION.
>> WE HAVE TO GO?
AW!
>> DON'’’T FEEL BAD, KIDS.
I'’’M SENDING YOU HOME WITH A GIFT FOR EACH OF YOU FROM YOUR DAD'’’S OLD COLLECTION.
SHINY GETS A SHINY SHELL.
DON, YOU GET THIS PIECE OF AMBER.
A BIG DRY FLOWER FOR TINY.
AND BUDDY GETS THIS TOOTH.
NOW WHENEVER YOU LOOK AT THEM, YOU CAN THINK OF GRANDPA AND ME.
