Exploring New York City

Aug 24, 2019

We continued our orientation of New York City and the Subway and headed with Ashley to the American Museum of Natural History which was wonderful. This is the building used in the movie ‘A Night at the Museum’ which must have been a logistical nightmare. We just loved the building which was immense and all kinds of wonderful as well as the exhibitions. Could spend all day. We enjoyed the Planetarium also which gave us things to tease out with Ashley … and probably drive him nuts as well. Ah well, you get that.

We explored a bit of Central Park and again were amazed at what a short distance you need to head into it to lose the sounds of the city. Such a lovely place to walk and just relax. We had another enjoyable meal together albeit a very noisy one in a bar on our way back to the hotel.

I’ll let the pictures tell the story again.

An empty block now a Community Garden.

And some apartment gardening.
