With the girls in town for 4 weeks holidays, we decided it was the perfect opportunity to head up to new York for 5 nights. The timing was great given it would be over the 4th July weekend!
It was extremely hot, especially given we were walking several miles a day, but we still enjoyed it!
We watched the fireworks over the Hudson River, visited the Statue of Liberty, Top of the Rock, Brass Bull, 911 Memorial and so much more! We also hired bicycles for 2 hours and set off on a ride through Central Park. Our last day was spent chilling at the beach and a turtle water fountain at Midland Beach on Staten Island. The kids were relieved to jump in the water and cool off!
We spent our last night in Manhattan at Time Square. There is something about seeing that place at night, all lit up and the atmosphere as hundreds of people wander the area.
We were fortunate to come across a street artist making paintings from spray cans. We put in a custom order and got a terrific piece of work. We also brought one of his pre sprayed pieces of New York through the eyes of Spiderman! very cool!
Check out this album of our trip!
