3rd Day in N.Y.




Today is our third day here in New York. It has been chilly the past couple of days, no rain today. Here is how our day went.

1. Breakfast with family: Me, the kids, John, my mom, Grandpa & Grandma Lardner, Favorite Aunt Mary, Cousin Jessica, Aunt Chrissy & Uncle John.

2. We then walked to the subway station. Took the C train to the Natural History Museum.

3. Walked around the museum. I think our favorite part was looking at the all the dinosaurs. The kids loved it.

4. We then took a taxi to the Central Park Zoo.

5. Had lunch prior to entering the actual zoo.

6. Walked around the zoo...the kids wanted to see Alex the Lion...the zoo had no lions. But we did see lots of birds, polar bears, red panda, sea lions, monkeys, penguins...and some other animals. Not a large zoo at all.

7. Walked around Central Park, something I've always wanted to do. It was gorgeous. The trees and flowers have started to bloom.

8. Took subway back to our hotel.

9. Picked up pizza and ate at the hotel

10 . John took boys to dinner and Audrey and I stayed back. I was so tired and sore from all of the walking.

11. Bed time!!! Tomorrow...Empire State building...Fire Museum and ???
