| For our summer vacation,
we went to New York City on the way to Ottawa. To the right is the
Hilton we stayed at.
Below is Times Square at night. |
 |
 |
 |
| One of the first things the girls noticed about New York was the HONKING, so we found this sign amusing. |
 |
 |
We decided to take a
carriage ride in Central Park.
The girls got to feed the horse a little treat afterwards. |
 |
 |
 |
The carriage ride was shorter than we thought it would be, they only took us on a small loop of the park, so we decided to go for a walk. |
| Let's go this way |
 |
 |
The little midway was closed for the filming of "Old Dogs" with Robin Williams and Kelly Preston. Yeah for zoom lenses. |
| Angela, Taylor and Anne Marie |
 |
 |
 |
| We didn't get to ride a "real" horse in New York City, but we enjoyed the carousel. This one was built in 1871 and originally powered by horse and mule. |
 |
 |
After the park we went to the Guggenheim. |
| Angela and Taylor looking cute by the background. |
 |
 |
Anne Marie was enthralled by the light up dance floor. |
 |
After the Guggenheim, we ran into another movie set. This one was for You Don't Mess with the Zohan featuring Adam Sander, but we didn't see him. We saw a scene with the bicycle (upper picture) was in a car accident, so we will look for that in the movie. |
| That night we saw Mary Poppins on Broadway. |
 |
 |
We went to see the Statue
of Liberty.
