NEW YORK CITY DAY

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.

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!

PICTURES I TOOK

While on vacation, I hijacked Mommy’s camera and took a number of pictures. Here are some of them. #nofilter

I call this series: ROOSEVELT ISLAND TRAM

And this series is called: WINGTIPS ACROSS AMERICA

NEW YORK CITY AFTERNOON

Daddy, Mommy, and I decided to go into New York City for a few hours and met up with my old friend, Seth!

While Daddy was busy using the restroom, I was busy looking bad to the bone in front of the diner we ate lunch at.

Then we went on the subway and it was SUPER AWESOME.

Then we went on the Roosevelt Island Tramway because I love aerial trams and I’ve been watching videos and looking at pictures and fantasizing about riding this tram. And it was even MORE AWESOME THAN THE SUBWAY.

Eventually, we had to leave the tram. Here is Mommy’s and my reflection in a window of Dylan’s Candy Store.

It was fun hanging out, NYC!

CHRIS AND CRYSTAL FOREVER

Last night, I went to my friends Crystal and Chris’ wedding! Okay, well…I hung out pretty close to the wedding outside under the Brooklyn Bridge. Music and camera flashes make meĀ upset, so I let Mom and Dad know very clearly that I wanted to stay OUTSIDE.

But it was fun playing with my new yellow taxi and New York City stickers. Thanks, Crystal and Chris!

EASTBOUND

Yesterday, we flew to New York. It was a long day, but I was really good on the plane! I played on the iPad, poured water into a cup, napped a little, tried (and liked) pineapple juice, and put grapes and chocolate chip cookies in my mouth. Mom and Dad were very proud of me.
