We're home. Whew. Wednesday morning we woke and ate breakfast (btw: did I mention how good the breakfast is at the Holiday Inn Express?) and packed the car so we were out of the hotel by 11:00. Off to Caroline's. Parked the car and then off to the Museum of Natural History. I posted all the pictures here. I was a tad disappointed because I expected (stupid of me I know) to see Teddy Roosevelt on his horse, the T-Rex in the rotunda, the Tiki (who was there but we missed him somewhere), the little people in the dioramas, Dexter (and what is with the African animals locked behind glass?), and Sacawagea with the Lewis and Clark expedition. Sigh. The magic of television once again disallusions a young, impressionable mind (ok, not that young).
We got back to Caroline's about 6:00 and then decided to eat dinner (at Subway). We hit the road about 7:30 (though got a taddie bit turned around leaving Brooklyn). Listened to a terrific book on tape, Dark Summer by Iris Johansen. We got home right around 3:30 so by the time we got the stuff in the house and off to bed it was around 4:00. AM!
Woke THIS morning at 8:00(ish) a.m. and then spent ALL day uploading the 280+ that I took in NY and then headed off to VBS (final night but I made one of them at least).
It was a great trip though.
