Carriage Ride, Picnic, Sailing and Exploring

We decided that the perfect way to spend our final day in the Big Apple would be at our favorite place... Central Park.

We said goodbye to the city with a carriage ride.

We picnicked under giant trees and skyscrapers.

At the conservatory water we rented a sailboat.

The bronze Alice in Wonderland Sculpture is beautiful.  It was installed in the park in 1959.  Children climb all over it every day.  It was dedicated to the park by a man in memory of his late wife who "loved all children."

Nathan found an alligator hidden underneath.

From Belvedere Castle we had a great view of the great lawn and turtle pond.  Gracie told Nate and I that the Princess of the City lives in the castle.

We're leaving today 

If we could make it here 

We'll make it anywhere

It's up to you, New York, New York!

 Thank you Gracie and Nathan for the wonderful vacation!

Mommy will never forget.

I love you.
