Central Park - a family favorite!
We spent a couple of days travelling to Albany, New York and the Harwinton, Connecticut for business meetings. Mark had a couple of business meetings scheduled in New York City on the following Monday & Tuesday, so we opted to spend the weekend in New York City. With such a large family, it is sometimes difficult to find hotel options for us. We opted for the Doubletree Suites in Times Square, which proved to be a great choice for our short stay!
New York City is an overwhelming place at first. Kyle looked absolutely shocked as he got out of the truck as Times Square is the heart of the tourist area for NYC, where the ball drops on New Year's Day. There was a palpable sense of traffic, noise, and wall-to-wall people! By day 3, I noticed the kids took it all in stride.
Some of the highlights of our trip were going to the 'Top of the Rock', top of Rockefeller Building, seeing the Lion King on Broadway, and visiting Central Park. Mark and the boys also made a trip down to see the Statue of Liberty while the girls napped Sunday afternoon before seeing the Lion King.
