VACATION


We returned from a wonderful time spent together on our vacation on Wednesday. Trayjan and Daddy chose this vacation to New York. It was fun, exciting, busy and interesting. We stayed near Time Square and boy was that an experience of a lifetime. We enjoyed ourselves but it was mass chaos the entire time. It's nice to visit, but certainely not a way to get away and relax. The beatiful thing was the kids enjoyed the entire trip, even the driving (I think it was the excitment of where we were going).

While in New York, we made our first stop to the USS Intredpid. It is a ship that fought in WWII, it was amazing to see and Trayjan loved it. Our next stop was to Time Square, then the largest Toys R Us in the world. Trayjan and Jie both absolutely loved it. They had so many items that our toys r us doesn't have, plus they had amazing Lego exhibits for Trayj and Thomas the Train exhibits for Jie (she loves Thomas the Train). We as well got to visit the Statue of Liberty and the 9/11 memorial sight. Thankfully we had a couple days that the weather was pleasant and sunny, but by the 3rd day we opted to go ahead and head back west to make our stay at Hershey. The kids love Hershey and by the time we got there the weather was back to sunny from rain and snow. Hershey is such a fun place to visit. The kids love Hershey World, and it seems each time we go, we learn something new about the process of making Chocolate.

Sounds like a fun vacation. NYC is one of Ted's favorite places to go. So much excitement all the time! You are right that it's a great place to visit but not too relaxing!! You probably needed to come home to rest! LOL!!

Thanks for the pictures. They were wonderful.
