Last day - another rainy one










Today we "slept in" till 7:30! We ate breakfast and played awhile. Uncle Josh let us watch some Noggin and then we got our raincoats on and off we went. We love riding the subway. It is so much fun standing in the door and looking out at the tracks as they go by fast. It is hard for me to know which subway door to go in but Uncle Josh has it all figured out.

We rode to Times Square and went to the biggest toy store I have ever seen and Grama Jo said it was the biggest for her too. It had a ferris wheel in the middle of it! We got on and rode. Each car was a different toy, like Buzz Light year, Barbie, M and M's, Little Tikes, a New York taxi, etc. We had a long ride and on it and Uncle Josh took pictures. We can't put any on this blog because the camera battery died! Grama Jo's other camera is having lens problems so the only camera that works now is my camera. Beck and I looked at LOTS of stuff in that store. We stayed almost 2 hours. They had Stars Wars, Bakugan, Transformers,Legos, books, Little Pony, and lots more.
We finally settled on a Bakugan sphere for me and Beck got a Bumblebee Transformer. After that we rode a taxi back to Mr. Dean's apartment and put out stuff down. We got another taxi and rode to Soho for lunch. It was REALLY good. We had hamburgers, hot dogs, grilled cheese and shakes. We all ate it all.

Then we walked over to the Scholastic Book Store. It had Captain Underpants right inside the door. Grama Jo took a picture of us with him and you can see it later. We LOVED that store. They even had the bus that Ms. Frizzle uses in the Magic School Bus. They were showing movies of the books so I had to watch that for awhile and then I found the Star Wars books.
That took a long time. Uncle Josh read some books to Beck and then we found some books to buy. We found a special one for Suji that tells how to have a special tea party. We found some Berenstain Bears books that we do not have and some Magic School bus books. We left there with a sack full. A special book we bought was about a Subway Mouse.

We rode the taxi back to Mr. Dean's and took a little rest and played with our new toys and then decided to walk back to the park that is right down the street. The water was going and we played in it until I got too cold. Beck found a friend his size named Luke and they played cars together. Luke told Beck that Beck could come to his birthday! They had a good time together.

Uncle Josh knew a restaurant that only makes Mac and Cheese so he went there and brought dinner to us. It was good. We are settling in for the night with our new books because we have to leave the apartment at 5:30 in the morning. We will catch the taxi to the train, then the train to NJ airport and then the plane home. Hope the hurricane is gone.

We have had LOTS of fun in New York City but we are all ready to get back home. Beck says he misses mom.

Pictures will be posted later.
Thanks for following us.
