New York City - Day 1!

Dad had to go to New York City for work so Mom and Dad decided to make it a mini-family vacation!  It was a quick trip - we only stayed for 2 nights - but we definitely made the most of it and got to experience a lot of the city!  We can't wait to go back!

For our first day, Mom, Clara and I flew to NYC first thing in the morning.  We had to take the subway from the airport to our hotel.  Dad was working so we explored by ourselves until he finished and met up with us for dinner.

I was a subway pro!  Clara needed some practice to get used to it! 

We finally made it to the hotel and need to rest our feet while we waited to get the key!

The view from our hotel room was awesome!  I've never seen a city so big!

Our big adventure for the day was to visit the American Museum of Natural History!

We got so see all sorts of cool things!  Highlights were some of the animals and of course the dinosaurs!  Not real ones of course... 



We spent some time in the kids area and did some of the learning activities! 

We even got to dig for fossils and try to put a dinosaur together! 

Our last stop in the museum was the famous blue whale exhibit!  It was gigantic!

We sat down under the blue whale to watch a movie about sharks...we didn't quite get to see the whole thing.  But Mom got to watch it about 10 times while she sat with us!

We were pretty grumpy when we woke up from our "nap" but Mom knew how to make us feel better!

Dad met us at dinnertime and we found a restaurant where we could sit outside to eat!

It was a long day!  Clara and I didn't mind snuggling up in the small bed!
