NEW YORK

Rode the train to NY for one day and did a TON of walking. We landed in Grand Central station and took the subway all over town.
First stop, The Lady
Jo wanted (like Cole did) to go out to the Statue. This will happen when we visit as a full family or I might have to tell the kids some thing like my folks told us growing up. We are saving this trip for you to take your own family when your grown up . HaHa

Bull
Who does not want a photo with the Bull on Wall Street? At least Jo didn't want to hold the golden jewels or stick her head...well...some adults find interesting photo opportunities with this Bull.

Waiting
Andrew, Grandma Beryl, Trish & Mandy waiting for us to finish with the Bull photos.

Ground Zero
Last year I believe they were at ground level, now they are on the third floor. Not bad.

Central Park
Andrew, Jo and Mandy

Carousel
Jo, Trish, Gma Beryl and Mandy on the second oldest working carousel in America. Andrew also rode but was on one of the horses in front of me.

The reason Jo went to Central Park
Balto! Jo only wanted to see this statue in NY. She sat on him, hugged him and just smiled and smiled. Vacation is complete now.

Trish surprised the four of us with a ride though the park on a carriage pulled by a horse named Prince.
It was a nice rest for our feet and was just darn fun! Found out that this was on Beryl's bucket list too so she was able to check that off! THANKS Trish.

Trump Tower
Andrew said he wanted to push over one of Trump's towers so I told him to do so. This was the shot!

Time Square
Hershey world, M&M world, lights and sounds! It was just fun to walk and watch and listen. Jo loved it other than having to hold some ones hand the whole time. Mandy was the chosen hand most of the time.

Dinner and Juniors
A perfect way to end our day in NY. Eating a great meal and topping it off sharing three different types of cheese cakes.
