We took our second-annual New York City summer excursion with Jim’s cousin Amy and her daughter Megan (here’s the post from last year’s visit). We were thankful to have all hands on deck bringing the kids into the city! (We left baby T with a sitter – I wasn’t sure how to manage a stroller on the subway!). We had a wonderful time, traipsing all over the city even in the 90 degree heat! We took the train into Grand Central Station and then the subway down to the ferry, which we took to Governor’s Island. None of us had been there before, but it was the perfect place to let the kids run and enjoy breathtaking views of the city skyline from the water. There was a historical exhibit with a old fortress – my little military history buff (Jimmy) was in his glory! We can’t wait to go back and explore more!
After the island, we took the subway back to Times Square and walked over to Rockefeller Center where we visited the American Girl store and the Nintendo Store. There was something for everyone! I’m so glad we all got to experience a New York City adventure together!
