Day 9--NYC

Today is our last day in New York City!  I'm afraid we saved the biggest for last!

Carson, Emma and Amy got up early to go to Central Perk. I had never watched the TV show "Friends", so I really didn't know anything about it.  Luckily, Elsa had passed, so we had pretty nice weather, for New York City in July!!

The rest of us met up with them at the temple. It was so cool to see the temple in the middle of the city. We couldn’t get to the recommend desk because of the security guard in front!

I spy Angel Moroni!!

Then we spent several hours exploring Central Park and only got through the bottom fourth of it! It's huge!!  I kept looking for the field where Elf helped Santa fix his sleigh, but couldn't find it!!

We did find Tavern on the Green...

and a sand court where the kids played a little VB.

Emma found an ice cream...

And Wyatt found a pretzel.

Also, we found the horse drawn carriages, and some fun sculptures.

Probably the most fun was rowing a boat in the lake.

It's hard to believe that right outside this amazing part is a crazy, noisy city!!

Then on to 5th Avenue to finish our (window) shopping at Tiffany’s, Bloomingdale’s, Dylan’s Candy bar, and Carson’s highlight of the trip—The Nike Store with five floors! 

Goodbye NYC...you wore us out!!
