We planned a trip to see McKelle in New York and see the fall leaves with a trip to Boston too. We took the red-eye flight on Oct. 15, I must say at our age that was quite the experience. Sleep on the plane? and then 2 days in the city. We did great but were exhausted by the end of the day. We stayed with Kelle's family, Jeanie and Mitch,during the week. It was so good to see them again. And then the next friday we headed for Boston and came home sunday. We did lots of sight seeing and shopping, which means there is lots of walking involved! And we loved every minute of it!!!! Came home Oct. 25th.
This is what McKelle sees everyday. It really is so beautiful there!
Gotta luv the Subway. This happened to be the only time we were by ourselves.
These next several pictures are of the New York Botanical Garden. Halloween Hoorah in the Children's Adventure Garden.
This was kinda creepy looking!
This is probably my favorite picture!! It reminds me of a puzzle that I would love to put together.
We saw Mario Batali do a cooking demo and give us some good tips.
This is Martha Stewarts herb garden
Just a pretty waterfall.....
In the City!!
We saw Mary Poppins at the New Amsterdam Theatre. We LOVED it sooooo much!!!!
In Times Square...
Beautiful day on Ellis Island
McKelle - Our New York City girl...
McKelle and I made our way through a crowd to get a picture with the Bull! And then we walked across the street and ate at Subway!
We walked part of the Brooklyn Bridge. It was so much warmer today. It was perfect weather for the city.
Here we are at Rockefeller Center. They had the ice skating rink up so we watched ice skaters for a while.
It was getting late but we wanted to at least walk into Central Park!
Donny and I went into the city to go to the Manhattan Temple. Our session was packed with full time missionaries. So cool! Check the ensign this month to see a picture of the ordinance room and it happens to be on the same page as the ordinance room in the Newport Beach Temple.
USS Constitution which was on the Freedom walk
Boston!
Which by the way we were freezing!!!!!!
This is a garden through the park by Boston Common. After this Kelle and I made a mad dash to Lulu lemon. What an adventure!
This is a beach in Glaucester, Mass which happens to be right near where they filmed "The Proposal" It was so beautiful, I loved it there.
We came home to this! A big windstorm passed through a couple days before we got home!
