An ambassador for New York

|

My mom's uncle Brian and cousin Tony were in town for a day so I took them around to see some sights.

We started downtown near the World Trade Center site; then walked over to Trinity Church, down Wall Street by the New York Stock Exchange and over the the harbor to see the Statue of Liberty. Then we took a boat ride on the Hudson up the west side of Manhattan to and had lunch near Madison Square Park. The line at Sake Shack was long, so mom had to forget about the beloved Chicago Dog, and we had a great lunch at Live Bait._MG_7740.png_MG_7742.pngAfter lunch we took the subway up the east side and walked into Central Park. We wandered through the great lawn and down to the Plaza "Hotel" even though it's now condos. By then it was getting dark; perfect for a visit to the "Top of the Rock" at Rockefeller Center. Which I highly recommend over the Empire State Building, no lines and better stroller access._MG_7745.pngI was in a stroller all day getting pushed around, but I imagine my feet would've been hurting if I were walking.
