Have a nice Weekend!

 What are you doing this weekend? For those of you who are in the New York City vicinity here are a few ideas of some free activities for a fun weekend!

Take a walk in Central Park - Love Central Park.  So much to see.  Always someone performing.  Always a photo shoot of a couple getting married.  Visit the zoo! Watch the boats and relax at the Boat House! Bird watch.  So many different species of birds in the park.

Walk across the Brooklyn Bridge. It is one of the best places to view the downtown skyline. The bridge has been designated a National Historic Landmark by the National Park Service.

I love walking on the Upper East Side in the 80's on Madison.  The window shopping is so great and there are markets that you can stop in for a bite to eat.  You can also visit the Ralph Lauren Store and grab an iced coffee or iced tea.  Walk by the MET and look at all the vendors displaying and selling their artwork.

Chicago and Central Park


Last weekend I went to Central Park.  I took some pics.  Before you look at my pics please click on the youtube video below so you can listen while you look.  Great "Chicago!"

Bethesda Fountain


Bethesda Terrace Arcade was created in the 1860s as a part of the Park’s main formal architectural feature. The highlight of the Arcade is the magnificent Minton Tile ceiling.

Have a colorful fall weekend!

What are you doing this weekend?  The leaves have turned beautiful colors.  A nice weekend to walk in the park.  I would love to go to Central Park this weekend if the weather cooperates.  Enjoy the weekend whatever you do!
