This weekend I drove Haley to NY for her fiddle lesson on Saturday then we stayed over and spent Sunday with her friend Sofia and family. We met and drove into the city to ride bikes in Central Park.
Parking was fun in a van with bike rack on back. We had to park half-way then remove the bikes from the rack and leave them on the sidewalk to get the van all the way into the spot.
The weather was perfect. The kids had so much fun riding their bikes around the path. There were a couple close calls with one particular young one who was not quite as competent with steering as the older kids.

This might have been the only picture I could capture of Alik without his tongue sticking out. |
We stopped in Sheep Meadow for a picnic lunch. Alik enjoyed laying on the blanket to look at clouds, Anya enjoyed eating, and Haley and Sofia had fun climbing the large tree shading us.

What a cutie!!! |
|
The big girls having a powwow. |
|
Let's see...if Sofia jumps up and grabs the branch then Haley might be able to jump up and reach it. |
|
With a little team work they both made it onto a branch. |
|
Here are the girls! Ready to get back on those bikes. |
|
A quick stop for some yummy ice-cream. |

A post-icecream zombie. Grrrr! Gotta love those rocket pops! |

Here's the Quidditch match we saw on our way back to the van. We, Muggles, had a hard time figuring out how they play but we enjoyed watching.
After our bike ride we stopped to check out an Irish session in a local pub. Haley and Sofia joined in for a couple tunes. We then got some pizza to eat and headed home. |
