New York Pics

Since we were flying all the way back east we decided to make a little vacation out of it. It was so much fun to just have Kaya with us and to take her places. While we were still in Atlantic City most of our days were spent at the pageant but we did make time to go see the boardwalk which was pretty cool and we went and saw a lighthouse that still stands there. When all of the pageant activities were done we drove up to New York for a day. It was such an awful rainy day but we still made our way around to see the things we wanted. The kids were such troopers. Much more than the adults. We made our way past Times Square all the way down to Central Park stopping for some good New York Pizza along the way. Kaya loved seeing the Hello Kitty stores and gift shops along the way. We then went down to the Plaza Hotel to see where Eloise stayed and she loved being able to see the pictures and displays of her things. Then we went to FAO Shwartz and Kaya was in absolute heaven. She loved being able to play on the big giant piano and seeing all of the millions of toys. We took her on the Subway and went to Grand Central Station. She absolutely loved New York and didn't want to leave. We definitely could of spent more time there.
We flew in and out of Philadelphia so we did make a quick stop to see Independence Hall and the Liberty Bell. When we were getting on the plane to come home the flight attendants let the kids go up to see the pilots in the cockpit which you never hear of them letting you do that anymore so that was pretty cool. It was a great time and I look forward to being able to travel more with the kids as they get older.
