Our last day in New York City and two more events on our wish list! Darn it Gumby, we paid for the tickets and we were going to use them, even if it killed us! Central park is free admittance, our City Pass had two unused events and we chose the Empire State Building! Not the best choice as it was extremely crowed, but we enjoyed it all the same. The park was so beautiful and I could have spent a great deal more time here but we only had several hours then dinner and train ride home! Sophie nodded off during the buggy ride, I poked her and suggested that she enjoy the ride, gosh I so wanted her to remember this!
We had a ball and most of all we gave the girls the gift of experience. You can't wrap experience up, it is priceless, but you can certainly take it with you and hopefully never grow out of it!

I remember wonderful & exciting trips w/ my grandparents & miss them sooo much... They'll definitely hold these trips & memories close to their hearts for their entire life, believe me, they will! =)
What a series of memories you've created and so many great photo ops. Sorry it had to come to an end, but sounds like y'all got your fill. Love the shot of the squirrels and the granddaughters are so pretty.
i think everyone should experience the carriage ride in central park at least once. :) cute squirrel and cute girls!
Rosemary,
Your grand darlins will never forget this trip with you! Didn't you love the horse drawn carriage?
Have a safe trip home.

What a wonderful time for all Rosemary!
Truly the things that memories are made of.
Wishing you a great weekend.

Central Park looks amazing, as does the horse and carriage ride. Seems you'll need a holiday after your holiday to recover!
What a great experience for these young ladies -- even if they get sleepy at times. xo
Someday I am going to see New York! great series, Rosemary!
Wonderful photos of your lovely NYC trip ~ My aunt took me to NYC when I was 7 and I have never forgotten ~ what a gift you are giving the girls ~ (A Creative Harbor)
That is so nice to see...smiling kids in central park..very nice. I am glad you had such a great NY experience.
Rosemary, Your granddaughters are just the right age to remember this trip always. I agree that experiences like this are the perfect gift!
It looks like you're having a wonderful time! Oh, just think of the memories you're making. I've never been to New York, but I'd love to visit someday. Hope you have a good weekend!
i live in new jersey and rarely visit the city. when i do, i feel overwhelmed and stressed. i want to love the city because everyone else does but i really don't.
you captured some beautiful spots and it looks like those girls had a wonderful time!!
it's not easy to knock them out at that age!!
You captured the essence of NYC with your beautiful photos.. and made some delightful memories with your lovely granddaughters.
