Steve and iris had booked tickets to take the train to the seaside for a family vacation.

"I'm really looking forward to this."

They had invited their niece Holly to join them...

as well as their nephew Coco....

"When is the train supposed to come?"

"Any time now, I think."

I suspect they will have a great time.

I remember seeing pictures of folks in the 1940s and 1950s who dressed up to take the train. They looked so elegant as Steve's family does.

The children look ready for the adventure. I wonder if this is baby Sena's first train ride.

Before the 70's people used to dress up for all kinds of special things - birthdays, special outings, Sundays, even going to work. Not anymore. Now dress codes are almost non-existent, and everyone is a just a slob.

I agree. I have seen people wearing their pajamas and slippers in shopping malls. Oh for the elegance of years past.

Steve and Iris have quite a little flock of children for this trip!

I agree with you and Dorothy about the lack of any kind of dress code today. One of the things I love about your photos is how lovely the world is that you create.❤️

Yes, they will have their hands full. Although I suspect Lisa will be quite some help.

Today's lack of any nice dress code is the reason I'm not the least bit interested in dressing my dolls in contemporary clothes, and much prefer period and fantasy fashions. My Iplekids are often more 'modern', but their style is more 50's and 60's, when little girls still wore dresses.
