New York City or Bust (August 23-24, 2008)


Our New York City Trip begins!!!

Many people thought we were crazy for taking a bus with our 2 little kids to NYC, and maybe we are, but the trip went great! We left Nashville at 6pm on Saturday night and arrived in NYC around 11:30 am (10:30 am cst) Sunday morning. The girls slept all night. Claire only had one or two times where she cried -- and that was because she wanted me to lay her down to sleep. :) All four of us traveled round trip to NYC for less than $300 (whereas flying would have been around $1000 for a non-stop flight!).




Don't worry she was not able to fall out of the seat! She loved riding or well, sleeping on the bus!!!


I bought lots of toys and books for Catherine to play with on the bus. We only opened one of those toys the whole time!!! On the way home, we never got out any toys b/c she slept almost the whole way!!! Here, Catherine is playing with some Dora window clings on the bus window!! :)

You were very brave! So glad you enjoyed your trip. Claire looks like she has grown so much!! Catherine had me fooled -- I thought I was seeing Dora on the roadside outside the bus! Looks like a fun toy.
Love, Mom
