Slept in a bit this morning, then set out for the Museum of Natural History. Landlords tipped us off to the "A" train, which we can pick up at this charming little station just a half block away, on a quiet and tree-lined street -- NOT the bustling latino commerce district with crowds, horns and shoving.
Not that we want to avoid the NY experience -- maybe we are becoming a little homesick. Anyway, this quiet street was a lovely surprise.
Took the "A" to the museum. Saw IMAX of Jane Goodall and chimps. Saw dinosaurs. Went to the AWESOME planetarium. Beyond awesome. Sooo 3D we felt we were in a star shower.
From the MNH we went back to American Girl Place. Seems Little One's newest 'needed' some casual clothes and had no jeans. Stopped in at St. Patrick's Cathedral. Took pics of window fashions at Bergdorf-Goodman.
Headed to Washington Square Park to keep date with little girl we met on Sunday. Headed up to Union Square to find ABC Carpet & Home, but missed it. Found WHOLE FOODS instead and picked up supper.
Needed the "L" west to pick up the "A" train. Realized, too late, we had boarded eastbound "L" and we were in Queens!!! Had to exit station, go around block, re-enter, and head west.
Finally, snuggled on "A" train and read some Potter. Arrived home, ate, and now Little One is practicing piano and I am blogging. Life is good.
