Let's go out

You can't stay inside all day so it's time to get yourself dressed and out the door.

Christmas in NYC

The wub took the train to New York for Christmas. The Boston train station was very pretty and had a huge model train set for Christmas.

Mommy and daddy took her to Rockefeller Center but it was way too crowded to get near the tree or skating rink, in fact it was hard even to walk past on the sidewalk in part because half of it was taken up by street vendors (all selling identical signed headshots of the Jonas brothers).

Being a big fan of Ghostbusters, the wub just had to visit the New York Public Library.
