Breakfast before some of us went to Central Park.
And the others did their own thing.









I love new york.

I treated some tired legs to a very expensive pedi-cab ride out of Central Park.
I was on a mission to reward myself with little bit of shopping.

I did not purchase this beautiful coat.

My favorite vintage store.

At Le Pain Quotidien

New York, NY 10028

Le Pain Quotidien
In Short by J. Schwartz
As light and airy as a country farmhouse, the simple decor and pine furnishings radiate rustic ambience. Local sophisticates gather at a long communal table, while couples sneak away to private seats in back. The menu features salads, soups and house-specialty tartines (open-face sandwiches) with fillings like imported French ham, duck pate, Gruyere cheese and Scottish smoked salmon. For a snack, a colorful fruit tart.
(my favorite is the arugula salad with pine nuts and goat cheese)

Gabi hailed this taxi cab. She was very quiet during the ride.
Apparently she was stunned that SHE was able to be call this cab.

They all enjoyed filipino food

Food was delicious.

on our way out of NYC, we got stuck in the Lincoln Tunnel for about 45 minutes
due to a bomb scare in the guise of a wayward suitcase in the median of the tunnel.

the girls wailing about what they thought might be their last day on earth.

About 4 hours out of NYC, we got stuck in another traffic jam.
1 hour of standstill traffic had us all socializing with other people.

photo-ops.


And, get this a chance to see someone's trophy 32 point deer head.
Apparently, the man does not travel far without his prized possesion.
Any pictures that are given to me will be added here:
