Touch a Truck

We went to a great event at The Orleans called Touch a Truck. It is basically set up for kids to be able to explore all kinds of trucks and vehicles. There are police cars, fire trucks, bull dozers, semis, and everything in between. While we were there we got to see the helicopter land.

Loved driving the police car.

We got to see Robosaurus there too. I knew Cameron was going to be uneasy during the show. The robot actually goes out and picks up a car and ultimately rips it in half! Apparently there is usually fire involved (coming out of his mouth). Luckily that wasn't working or I'm sure it would have been worse. When he picked up the car he shot streamers out of his head. It was a loud pop and as stuff came shooting out Cameron was immediately crying! You can actually hear him on the video say "I wanna go home". He was not a fan and could barely watch the rest of the show. He just couldn't figure out why he was ripping the car in half.

After the show we had to talk through it all...over and over and over. We watched the video a few times. The rest of the day he kept asking why did he pick up the gray car? Why was his skin (no idea where this came from) was screaming. After a while he decided he liked Robosaurus. He convinced himself he was ready to go see him again for his next show when he would pick up another car. He assured us this next time he wouldn't cry. Instead, he would laugh really hard when he ripped the car in half.
