On Saturday, we split into 2 groups and my mom and I headed to Central Park in the subway and Debbie, Jeff and Maddie took an uber to the Met. It was a drizzly day so fortunately we had done a lot more running around the day before!
We had booked a pedicab tour that started near Columbus Circle. Our driver introduced himself as MJ for Michael Jackson, from Tajikistan. Ok! He was very charming and told us a lot about Central Park.
We stopped at this spot for a great view first.
The view and pace was really nice and we enjoyed the ride. We made another stop at the Bethesda Fountain and terrace.
MJ was very taken with John Lennon and he took us to the Dakota Building, where John and Yoko lived and where was John was shot. Liam reminded me that Miles wrote the Encyclopedia Britannica entry about the Dakota!
After the tour, we had lunch then took the subway back to our hotel (stopping by the dry cleaners where the stain wasn’t removed!). But these bird mosaics in the train station were very cool.
Shame about the shirt!! Looks like a fun tour tho!
