Ben's 1st trip to New York

Feb 4, 2009 at 05:41

This past weekend the family went on a long weekend to NYC for a little getaway. I won't say it was meant to be relaxing because it wasn't.

Here is a photo of Ben's first ride on a train.



He was amazed. He loved riding the trains and subways that I think we could have spent the whole trip underground.

I did not include any airplane shots because... well lets face it. Ben is a well seasoned veteran of the skies! Going to NY was his sixth or seventh time on a plane and he was bored with it.

Ben celebrated his third birthday last week and as a little extension of his special day we decided to take our little monkey to see the dinosaurs at the Museum of Natural History.

He was so excited that you almost could not see him.



Other random shots from that fun filled and exhausting day.







Again I want to thank the great folks at ESC for letting us stay at the company apartment while visiting the city. Hope we didn't leave it in too much of a mess.










That looks like a really fun birthday and business trip with Ben! I'll bet Ken had a blast too! Maybe Ben will be a paleontologist when he grows up, neat! I hope you got a pizza and coffee fix from the city! The best in the world! I love riding the rails too. Fabulous!

It does look like you had a fun trip! I can't believe he has been on a plane so many times!

Hey Beth S. We live in a cute city, it's just nice to get away and go somewhere new once in a while.

Hey Beth. Before moving closer to family our only option to visit was flying. Now we can take that money and visit new places (like WI)! j.
