Legoland - New York

Image
This past year a brand new Legoland opened up in Upstate New York. It was not something that was really on our radar. We have done a Legoland   in Florida when the kids were really young and even then we weren't that impressed. I mean sure it's cool that everything is made out of Legos and the Miniland is definitely wow worthy but the rides are just meh, especially for older kids.  H was only one when we last went so he complained that it was not fair since he was too young to remember.. and he really is a LEGO lover.. so we thought okay. And then as if it was meant to be.. T-Mobile was offering 50% off tickets.. that just sealed the deal. The brand new Legoland is in Goshen, New York. They have a hotel on premises as well.  Here we are in Florida, 2015. D was five and H a wee little one. You can read more about our trip here It was a nice sprawling space, masks required in all indoor spaces.. we didn't eat there so can't comment on the food. The rides and activities we

Pumpkins and Leaves

Image
We are half way through October and it has been busy.  School, sports and other extra curriculars will our weekdays and the weekends just fly by. Last weekend we swung by a local pumpkin patch.. D wanted a white pumpkin this year. And since last weekend was a long weekend M took Monday off and we went for a hike. D's friend joined us. We drove up to northern New Jersey, close to the Del-Water Gap and hike the 2.5 mile red dot trail up Mount Tammany. The weather was perfect and the hike was great. Lots of rocks to climb over.. The kids loved it..  The mountain you see across the water is Mount Minsi, Pennsylvania.   Look at all the beautiful mushroom's we found! The leaves we're really at peak color yet.. oh well.  On the way down we followed the blue dots which led us to Dunnfield Creek Falls                    Etsy             Instagram             Twitter             Bloglovin

How Many Museums?

Image
We are planning a little New York City staycation in November. And I was pondering over which museums to visit when H asked 'how many museums have we been too?' I didn't know. A decent amount I would think. I know there are a couple we have done more than once. So that got me going back as far as 2008. M and I had been married one year and that's when not only did we start travelling but that's also how far back I have pictures from.. I barely have any pictures from before then. I digress but I do hope to be able to visit my parents home (back in Pakistan) in the not too distant future and I want to go through all our childhood pictures and scan them. Any.. we were talking museums. I am not adding botanical garden, zoo's and aquariums to this list.  1. De Cordova Sculpture Park, Massachusetts We went on a fall leaf peeping trip all the way up to Maine.. pre blogging unfortunately so don't remember all the details but M was very skeptical about a sculpture pa
