Rob needed to interview someone in the city, so we all packed in the car and headed in.
I decided to take the kids to Central Park. There was some sort of carnival going on.
We made our way to the kids’ park, which I was delighted to see had a sprinkler area. It was scorching hot, and I wanted to throw myself under the water. The kids for some reason suddenly got super shy and refused to play. I guess because they didn’t have swimsuits on?
We wandered around and discovered that the entire play area had sprinklers and a little river system.
There’s a wading river all through the top of this area – where the rails are, if you can see them.
It’s such a happy place. I loved the vibe here, with all the kids running around and having so much fun.
Elliot found some tire swings. (He insisted on wearing a long-sleeved thermal shirt. I tried to reason with him, but he’s 4. What’re ya gonna do?)
Sophie is almost exactly the same age Elliot was when we visited NYC for the first time in 2007. That time we stumbled upon a park at Madison Square.
As we were walking back to the car, Elliot struck a philosophical pose on this tree.
I think he just wanted a nap. We were all so exhausted! Tired but happy. :)
