These pics in brooklyn where taken after a full day of city life. First, we went for a morning walk in Riverside Park. Then we shopped our way down broadway. stopping in American Appearal (the source of the purple P shirt), Urban, kid shoe store, Duane Reade and 2 boutiques. Then home (davis and Mel's apt-they were in UT the whole week) for lunch and naps. From there, we headed to Times Square for the Matinee of Mary Poppins. 2 things on that. 1-TKTS seems way easier than it used to be. Ten minutes before the show, i got 2 $40 tickets. No line, and they even take credit cards now. 2- Two years old is not old enough to sit through a Broadway show. Lots of candy was involved in the 2nd half to keep the peace in our corner of the theatre.
after the show we took a rickshaw taxi home, which we all loved-so fun to get to look up and everywhere as we got carted around. I guess that is what it feels like all the time to be the boys, cause we changed into our swimsuits and I piled them in the double stroller (that I borrowed the day i got to town) and we (I) ran up to the central park pool for a little swim. (in a HUGE pool that is an ice skating rink in the winter).
Running back home through the park that evening was pretty perfect. I probably could have called it a day at this point, but instead, we changed and I piled the boys in the car to drive downtown, across the bridge to get some amazing pizza-that i'm sure they didn't even apprieate. But man, was i ever starving!
and that was just one day of our trip!
