New York, New York

August 27th, 2013

After our visit in Connecticut, it was time to make our way to the JFK airport and then home.  It was a detour, but we figured why not make the most of our time - instead of spending hours at the airport, let's grab lunch in Manhattan!

First we parked in a lot near the restaurant and Times Square - probably the most we've ever paid to park anywhere for so short a period of time.  Then we headed to Times Square.  Mama and Dada had been there before Xander was born, but this was Xander's first time...


Not the right time of year to see the ball drop, but we did catch a glimpse of the dropped ball...


Then Mama got in her photo op with Xander too...


After a brisk walk back towards parking, we were only a little early for our reservation at Bar Americain.  We wanted to try Bobby Flay's food and were so excited - unfortunately the food was not as good as we'd hoped and even if it didn't take as much as it did for us to get there, even if it was down the street from us, Mama doesn't think she'd go back.  But still, it was a fun experience and fun adventure.  Totally worth it!
