If you can forget the politics it was a great year with lots of travel to Arizona, Cape May, Maine with Tessa and Leila, and South Africa. We finished it up with six days in NYC with our 16 year old granddaughter Tessa. Since she lives in Olympia, WA she hadn’t had a chance to go there before, so we gave her the grand tour. We visited museums,
Tessa and Denny at the Museum of Natural History
Sculpture room at the Metropolitan
walked through Central Park, through Strawberry Fields,
saw the Dakota,
Tessa and Alice
Fountain in the park
Hansom cab
libraries,
(ceiling of the main reading room)
lots of fun windows with their holiday decorations,
went to see some of the big hotels, saw Times Square,
the Empire State Building,
Rockefeller Center, (big light show across the street on Saks),
Wall Street,
Ground Zero,
the United Nations,
saw a great play, Shear Madness, which was really funny, and rode the Staten Island Ferry to see the Statue of Liberty.

Phew! Not bad for 4 days (2 of our days were for travel). We took subways to start the day but mostly walked and by late afternoon we were ready to head back to the apartment we were staying at. It was a wonderful way to finish 2016.
Wishing all of you a Happy, Healthy New Year!
