Monday, Monday!

I am probably unusual because I look forward to Mondays: It is our day off from studying!  I have been wanting to go to Central Park for a long time now, but something always spoils the day and we end up not going (rain, being on call, more rain).  Finally we got to go on Memorial Day.  It was a clear, sunny, hot day.  I pulled my camera out of my tote and realized the battery wasn't in the camera: I left it charging at home.  I was so disappointed, but I had my phone so I have a few pictures (although not as good of quality).  Farley agreed to go back this summer, with my camera, and explore more.  


Farley and I next to the lake, which is 18 acres!


This is Belvedere Castle
The Obelisk, nicknamed Cleopatra’s Needle, is the oldest man-made object in Central Park.


Ai Weiwei's Circle of Animal Heads at Columbus Circle.  Mr. Weiwei also designed the Bird's Nest stadium used in the Olympics in China.
 After leaving Central Park we walked down 5th Ave and enjoyed the beautiful day.  We decided to take the train and hang out at Union Square our favorite area of New York.  It was a great day off!!

On another note:

The picture below is from a school near our house.  I can't remember when exactly I took the picture but I love it.  In case you can't read the sign easily, it says "NO SMOKING near school.  Children's lungs at work.  Asthma Free Zone."
