Family Trip to NYC - Thursday

David had a business trip to NYC during the last couple of days of school. School let out for the summer on Wednesday, and on Thursday, Beth and the kids were driving down to Manhattan to take in some sights, food, and kick off the summer in style! We stayed at a nice Hampton Inn in midtown for the night, spent the next day in Central Park, then went to NJ to see some old friends. It was a great way to begin summer.

Right after we checked into our hotel room, the kids heard sirens outside our window. Turns out a window washer crew had gotten stuck, and one side of the rig had broken. It was quite an operation to get them down!

We went to one of our favorite pizza places in Manhattan, John's pizzeria in midtown. So yummy!

The kids hanging out at the huge Lego displays at Toys 'R Us in Times Square

Times Square now that it has been shut down to cars. We really liked it. Can you find us? :-)

Sometimes all that walking can get really tiring!

As a special treat for Rachel, she and Dave went to see Mamma Mia! on Broadway. They had a great time! Then they hung out in Times Square a little bit longer.
