Last Day in Big Apple

A quick trip to the Met before heading home.

Room of sculptural goodness.

One might say that we are trying to have a home ready when we get back, but instead we are renting an AirBnB in Santa Fe. Kearsley is busy making plans.

Enjoying art.

Chillin with the paintings.

NY Deli and Summit One

Another rainy day with good food and  (limited) city views.

Barney Greengrass for some delicious Jewish food.

Matzo ball soup.

All the good food. Todd even had a celebrity siting of John Slattery from Mad Men. 

Inside Grand Central.

Having fun

Sometimes we could see cool stuff out the window.

Mirror rooms.

Dexter ponders.

Where's Dexter?

Glass perch.

Enjoying the city.

Broadway and Times Square

We had more fun checking out the city and a Broadway show.

NY is big.

Looking up at it all.

It was a rainy evening and time for Hadestown.

Ready for the show.

The set. It was a FABULOUS show.

Heading for Times Square in the rain.

Trying to have fun rain or shine.

Columbia and Pizza

Our next day in NYC included a sweet tour of Columbia University NYU  and NY style pizza. 

Columbia University is extremely impressive in its grand architecture.

The boys enjoying the school. 

Columbia is pretty amazing. After visiting here, we headed to NYU's campus. 

A NY slice.

Delicious.

Experiencing the goodness.

The Big Apple


After 6 college tours in 3 days, it was time to meet up with Lulu and Pop and the cousins in NYC!

Todd getting his first glimpse of the NYC subway after dropping off our rental car.

Dinner with Pop and the cousins after their big adventures in NYC. Lulu sadly came down with the flu and was resting back at the room.

Viv and Dexter walking in the rain together.

Our gang said goodbye to Pop, Lulu, Kalea and Viv who were all catching planes tomorrow at JFK.
 
Dexter had a great time with them and didn't want to leave.
