Manhattan

It's our 3rd day in Manhattan and we're still surviving the big city. Our big thanks to Aviva and Hillel who made it possible for us. We stayed with them and took the bus to the big apple. They really made us feel home and the kids were all ready to accept the "challenge". Here they're snuggling in their living room in front of the tv.
Yesterday morning the kids were helping Hillel to clean the falling leaves from the backyard. Adi had a special role as a leave compressor.
We said good bye to our wonderful hosts in NJ and moved to an rv park closer to Manhattan. In the big city we've been to all the popular sites again, just that this time it was with the kids for the first time.
In the toy store, Dagan was trying to beat the sales person in solving Rubik cube. The dude was much faster but Dagan gave a good fight (-:
The ice rink in Bryant Park is already active, even though the weather was nice and warm.
We've visited all the "classics"

and had lunch in Chelsea Market, "foodies" favorite spot.

The original plan was to leave NY this morning and go south. Plans changed when we met Ronen and Lihi for dinner last night and Ronen invited us to a guided tour (by himself) in the UN.

Dear all,

from happy halloween to the elections. Just a few days and you are really into the stuff. Thanks for more info about cousins, second and third etc. Great to do the 'normal' talking he. Very anxious to read what you see about elections or crazy side stories. The news is just the news but your blog is really new(s). The kids look happier and happier on the foto's. And good to be around relatives too. Jorine would love to be around Aviv as a true friend, having some hubbles and bubbles on the road here. The leaves thing I did myself today too. It is fun he Adi!! Have a great day tomorrow1
