The best part?
We three.
Together.
…And as I traversed that amazing city with my beautiful daughters, I had to consider Alicia Keys’ words in Jay Z’s song, “Empire State of Mind:”
In New York,
Concrete jungle where dreams are made of,
There’s nothing you can’t do,
Now you’re in New York,
These streets will make you feel brand new,
The lights will inspire you,
Lets here it for New York, New York, New York!
We made memories to last a lifetime, we three…
Wow–what an itinerary! What an adventure!
I always enjoy my trips to NYC.
And hey, my cousin is a docent at the Metropolitan Museum of Art and my nephew designed a product when he was only 19 that is sold at the MoMA gift shop. I’ve been thinking I need to go back to NY and do museums…Haven’t done them there since I was a kid.
We loved our time in the museums. Each of my daughters has distinctly different interests, so they visited their favorites and I got to do them all. Since I’m kind of a museum nerd, this arrangement was ideal.
