New York City--Boy Style

A Yankee game from the lower deck—thanks to one of my husband’s clients.
 
Pizza. And more pizza. And more pizza. And burgers. And more pizza. And desserts.
 
Central Park.
 
Times Square.
 
Niketown.
 
We did make them go to the Statue of Liberty and Ellis Island. And they finally okayed the American Museum of Natural History since it was across the street from our hotel. But overall, quite a different trip from the ones I’ve taken before. I will say this—never again will I have to do the overview tour bus. I’ve now done it with all of my children!
 
But New York is New York. The city energizes me somehow. I’m sure it wouldn’t be the same if I lived there, but when I visit, I wake up ready for the adventure of each new day and I fall asleep without effort.
 
Now I’m home to my crazy yet mundane life.

What? No Broadway shows?
Yeah, I get the "guy" thing. Definitely a coup to go to a Yankess game, especiall since they are going to tear down the stadium.
Sounds like a fun trip. We're off to la-la land (aka California) in a couple of weeks for my son's wedding at Disneyland. Never in my wildest dreams would I have imagined going to a real fairy-tale wedding :-)
Enjoy the rest of your summer.

A Disneyworld, fairy tale wedding? How fun is that! I'm sure you'll blog about it after its done. I can't wait to read it!
