Alice is in Central Park

On our family adventure in New York this past summer, we spent many hours walking through the fabulous Central Park. The family all marveled at the wonder located in this huge park in the center of the massive city. What an amazing place with so much to see and do!

We visited many of the monuments and statues throughout the park, but I especially liked the Alice in Wonderland sculpture. A truly amazing piece of are inspired by amazing literature!

On the Highline

After a delicious and farm fresh breakfast at the Chelsea Creamline, we took a short walk and met friends on The Highline. Although it was crowded, it lived up to all the hype. What a magnificent use of urban space! The gardens were in full summer bloom and the art installations were whimsical, fun and modern. It was an amazing beautiful space.

Summer Break in New York

The family had a busy summer break. We visited relatives in Cleveland, had a quick escape to Orlando and several more days in New York City. Our children especially enjoined the American Museum of Natural History and the Metropolitan Museum of Art. The elephants on display in the Akeley Hall of African Mammals were particularly amazing!
