Today was be-yoo-ti-ful here in NYC, and we spent much of the day soaking up the gorgeousness in the park. I actually left W with a friend for a few hours so that J and I could have some alone time, and when I asked J what he wanted to do, he was determined to go for a ride on the Central Park Carousel. So, with that as our goal, we traipsed through a wonderland of green grass and blue sky and pink blossoms, stopping to snap some pics along the way...
The Carousel was fantastic. We rode twice in a row...
...before returning home and collapsing into a sofa-nap pile:
Soon Taro got home from work, and we were all hungry for dinner, so we walked to our favorite UWS Ethiopian joint, Awash, where we shared the delicious Vegetarian Combination Platter. Heaven.
All in all, it was the perfect Spring day :)
I've never seen trees or a park like that outside of pictures. It's absolutely beautiful.
