Before heading back home, we spent one final day going to a bunch of different places in New York, including riding the Staten Island Ferry, visiting the Mysterious Bookshop, and walking The High Line park.
NEW YORK CITY DAY
Category Archives: The World
CONEY ISLAND
We went to the the world famous Coney Island! It took, like, an hour on the subway, but I love the subway, so no problem. Plus, I was super duper crazy excited.
Don’t I look miserable?
I rode The Phoenix!
Daddy had a Nathan’s hot dog for lunch, OF COURSE.
And, of course, the subway back to the hotel.
Video time!
KONEKO CAT CAFE
After we saw Amy and John, we went to a cat cafe! I was so excited for this. There were so many cute cats there and they were all adoptable. Mommy wanted to bring them all home, but Daddy and I stopped her.
NEW YORK WITH AMY & JOHN
Cousin Amy and John took the bus all the way to New York City to see us all while we were in town. I got another ride on the subway!
When Mommy and Daddy lived in New York, midtown Manhattan on the Hudson River was a whole bunch of nothing. Now it’s a HUGE area with parks, malls, art, and activities. It’s called Hudson Yards and we had a great time hanging out with Amy and John there.
UNCLE MIKE & AUNT SARAH’S WEDDING
Uncle Mike and Aunt Sarah had a wedding reception in Yonkers, NY. I got there early and got to run around the place.
I sat by Daddy’s old friend Seth and Seth’s dad. They brought me stamps and Mad Libs to play with!
Afterward, we got to ride the Metro North and NYC subway back to our hotel. I love New York mass transit!
DINING & FISHING
When we visit Grandma and Grandpa, we always go to the Four Aces Diner. I like the yogurt with King Arthur Flour granola and real Vermont maple syrup.
Later, Grandpa and I went fishing on Eastman Lake. I caught a lot of algae!
NORTH HAVERHILL FAIR
The North Haverhill Fair was going on while we were in New Hampshire. So, of course, we had to go so I could get another credit!
This turned out to be the worst roller coaster I’ve ever ridden. See that cord behind me? This coaster was literally plugged in to the train the whole time. (But it’s a credit!)
Grandma is not much of a roller coaster fan, so she just accompanied me us.
Mommy and I went on a swing ride, and it was pretty nauseating.
But a fair is a fair, and I still had an awesome time!
NEW HAMPSHIRE KAYAKING
Every time we go to New Hampshire, we need to make sure we go kayaking! This time, we used the inflatable kayak, which is cool, because all three of us can go at the same time.
FLYING TO NEW HAMPSHIRE
With the Pennsylvania leg of our big East Coast trip done, it was time to head from Cleveland to New Hampshire. On our layover in Philadelphia, we got to deplane outside!
Then when we landed in New Hampshire, it was only appropriate that we went to the Airport Diner. It’s a tradition!
WALDAMEER PARK & WATER WORLD
Waldameer, in Erie, PA, was our last park in Pennsylvania!
This is Comet, one of their five credits…
…and Ravine Flyer II, my favorite coaster there! (Mommy thought it was a concusser.)
And here I am intentionally looking away because I’m being photographed next to a sign.
After we left the park, we looked for a restaurant for dinner, and Daddy sat next to Lisa Simpson for some reason…? Anyway, on to New Hampshire!
