A trip to "The Big Apple"!!

Our trip to Jersey finished off really big with a day trip into the city. We all got dressed up in our tie-dyed shirts and jumped on a train!  My first time ever riding a real one, Jimi's too, and we were both really excited.  Much to my dismay, when we got to the city mommy strapped me into a stroller even though I really wanted to walk.  She kept saying there were too many people and I might get lost! I have to admit, I'm not sure I had ever seen that many people, but that didn't stop me from asking!  Our first stop was to the Toys-R-Us store in Times Square! Four stories of endless fun!!  There is even a giant Ferris wheel inside the store that we got to ride. 
After that, we kept walking through the city until we got to Central Park where we had a little pic-nic and went to the zoo. They actually have a really nice zoo right in the middle of the park, right in the middle of a huge city! They had really neat animals to look at and even some we could pet. I really liked walking through the rain forest section and seeing all the birds. I thought it was really funny that it kept raining on us inside!!
After the zoo I passed out in my stroller (it was way past my nap time) for a little while. When I woke up we had a quick dinner and then headed to a show called "Gazillion Bubbles"! Unfortunately they wouldn't allow us to take pictures in the theater but they were definitely not lying! I have never seen so many bubbles and the guy did really neat tricks with them!  It was a great surprise from Uncle Tom and a really fun way to end our day. 
The next day was our last, so we stayed home and relaxed a bit. It actually poured rain for most of the day which kept us all locked inside. By night time we were all going a bit crazy so we broke out some glow sticks and headed out for a walk around the block! 
The plane ride home the next day was a bit easier on mommy, though we had a four hour layover in Denver. That was okay with me because I got to ride the escalator over, and over, and over, and over!  By the time we got on the plane I was exhausted! Our last leg of the flight I fell asleep sitting up in my seat before the plane even took off and I almost fell over! Mommy laid me down in her lap and I slept the entire time!
