♫♫♪ I like the island Manhattan ♫♫♪

We just returned from a weeklong trip to New York.  We saw and experienced a lot in six very busy days.

We walked...
5th Avenue by Central Park

We railed...

We ate (very well!)...
goat cheese tart at La Sirene in South Village
their filet with foie gras and truffle sauce was excellent too

rice pudding at Rice to Riches

frozen hot chocolate at Serendipity3

Popbar
gelato & sorbet on a stick (genius!)

We saw great heights...
Empire State Building from Top of the Rock

Lady Liberty from Liberty Island

We embraced the crowds...
times square

bethesda terrace @ central park

We chased pigeons...
apologies to those passing by...

We saw many impressive sights....
cherry blossoms on Liberty Island

colorful flags at Rockefeller Center
did you know that there is still ice skating in April?

Bryant Park
Peaceful bliss just a few blocks away from Times Square

blooming tulips all over the city

We had a melt down...
at Central Park...

We climbed rocks...
at Central Park a few minutes later

Best of all, we enjoyed family time...
at Lombardi's Pizza

It was a wonderful trip and the kids are already asking when we will return again.  They loved New York  and embraced wholeheartedly all that is so different from Southern California.  That makes me happy.
