I’ve been wanting to go back to the New York Botanical Gardens for years. We used to take the kids when they were young but it hasn’t fit into our NJ / NY area visiting schedule for a while! This time we decided to go, even though it was pretty cold outside. We spent more of our time inside the Holiday Train exhibit, in which classic NYC architecture is created out of plants, complete with trains passing by.
First, Gabbie needed her shoe tied.
It still looks like fall, even though it was so cold!
Please forgive the multitude of pictures that I took inside the exhibit!
It’s my favorite thing when the kids let me take a picture of them together!
Besides the recreated buildings, there are also plants to see.
Simon climbed up some stairs and I found this picture really funny:
He was telling us to come up because there was a door to the outside.
And then Gabbie wanted a picture of her head above the plants too.
Back to the plants!
Back outside, we took a trolley tour even though the narration wasn’t working and it was freezing so I didn’t really enjoy that. But here’s a few more pictures!
It was a fun excursion!
