Next on the list of things to do was roller skating. There is a roller rink on Pier 4 of Brooklyn Bridge Park and it’s free admission at 10am on Sundays (you just pay for skate rentals). The kids were troopers – it was super slippery on the surface and they never gave up!
We generally don’t take the kids out after the sun has set … perhaps being cooped up for so long with COVID has made us a big more willing to go outdoors … we decided to head out to show the kids the memorial lights over World Trade Center this year and explained to them what happened to the Twin Towers. It was a beautiful, clear night and we will always remember.
Happy first day of school! They’re getting so big! Yay for no remote school this year!
Daddy took the kids rock climbing underneath the Manhattan Bridge for the first time. They are such naturals and they loved it!
Hiking solo with the kids – what an adventure! And this was certainly a steeper hike than the one we did on Bear Mountain. Total mileage around 3 miles – this was a tough one for them and they did so well! So proud of you!! XO
Piano lessons have resumed!
Perfecting the art of making scones!
Taking the kids for their first hike with Xiu-Gen and Laurent! They did so GOOD! So proud of them! XO
And what is summer without the beach?!?!
