NYC - Day 3

Today we visited the Museum of Natural History, and after a lot of skeletons and animals, made our way over to Central Park and Bloomingdales to do some shopping.

We also visited FAO Schwarz and offcourse I had to take a picture of the Lego storm trooper for my boys.

K wanted to visit Central Park, but the rest of us taught we had been walking enough, so we took a carriage ride through Central Park and discovered that the Zoo has no lions, so helas, no Alex the lion...

And before grabbing some diner, we stilled our hunger for boys at Abercrombie. But the girls didnt want to go on the picture with the guy, sojust the guy...

NYC - day 2

So, this morning we got out of bed early and took off to the Guggenheim. When we arrived there were lines of waiting people so we decided to have a walk in Central Park and when it started to rain , we quickly grabbed a cup of coffee in some cafe.
After a while, because we had a nice talk with a local lady, we visited the Guggenheim, but we were all a bit dissapointed, as there were not many paintings around???

 

Afterwards we watched a parade to to celebrate the German-American connection and walked towards Grand Central Station. We believe that we have a nice station In Antwerp (and it is!) but Grand Central is also a very nice station to visit.

Then, we had lunch, saw all sorts of landmarks and had diner. A long day with more walking than we anticipated, but we saw a lot.

New York is a step closer

A couple of friends and I are planning a trip to the big apple. Last weekend, we had a ladies night, OK, except for my boys, but they were in bed by then, we had some champagne, watched Magic Mike and made plans for our trip to NYC.
So, who has some great ideas for NYC? Restaurants we must visit, some hidden musea, craft stores? Just some need to visit places. I can´t wait to get some great ideas from you guys.
