NYC Travel Photography: A Stroll to the Park

Not too long ago, the boys and I headed to one of my favorite playgrounds in Central Park, right off of 67th and 5th Avenue. We walked past all the energy and excitement often found along Fifth Avenue…even past some overly excited tourists taking pictures of a man being arrested (oh the excitement of it all!), and past the famous Plaza Hotel, and fairly new Apple Store and FAO Schwarz Toy Store and more.

Hope you enjoy their afternoon in pictures!

    That's awesome. I get really nervous in big cities(small town boy here). That doesn't mean I can't appreciate it though.

    Thanks Latina!

    Jason: Yeah, when we first moved back from WI the little ones…no, actually, even the older one, were all a little careless. It took some training…now, they are pros (pretty much)!

    I occasionally (often) envy those who live in NY and have all that culture available within blocks.

    Those of us living in the sticks (Houston) get recycled broadway and apple stores stuck in malls.

    But we have yards. Even if they do flood.

    Whining. I'm whining. Sorry.

    Lovely photos.

    The southern area of central park is great for just walking around and looking at scenery (or toy stores) but the prices for even a bottle of water are a rip off. Just bring your own food to have a picnic and it's a great place.

We found this spot a few years ago, before we moved to the area full time while at a rental nearby and immediately fell in love with its community and cozy vibe, and delicious coffee. 

It’s even cuter than when we first visited while all the reasons we love it remain. Always worth a stop when in Geneva.
