Adam and Holly recently moved to Connecticut so we decided it was a great chance to visit them on the east coast and take a family vacation. After flying into JFK we drove up to Redding, CT where Adam and Holly are currently living in Mark Twain's carriage house. As you can see Adam and Holly were very welcoming. They were great hosts and we had a great time hanging out with them.
New York was one of our stops on the trip and although we didn't take the ferry ride out to see the Statue of Liberty we did walk down to Battery Park to see it from afar.
We also took a tour of the 9/11 memorial and spotted the new trade towers under construction.
Here's a shot of our stop at the Natural History Museum.
We also had to take a stroll through Central Park and Time Square.
The Metropolitan Museum of Art was definitely my favorite spot in New York. Liam really liked the Egyptian part of the museum. I took a solo tour through their special exhibit Prada and Schiaparelli.
Another leg of the trip consisted of seeing some of the other towns closer to Adam's house.
Here we made a quick stop in New Haven to take a tour of Yale on our way to Boston.
We also stopped at a great chocolate shop in New Caanan.
Lila was in heaven having a sleep over with her cousins night after night. Holly was so nice to take care of her when we made an overnight trip to Boston. Lila is going to have major withdrawals not being closer to her cousins.
