NYC Will Never be the Same

That's right, the Country Mice are packing their Costco Luggage with their poly-blend sweaters, $30 jeans, and sensible shoes, and heading to The Big City.

Luckily, we've roped some friends into being our Free Tour Guides, and we plan to meet up with some folks who live down there and know their way around. I'm now only slightly scared that my little family will get lost or separated. I'm much more scared by the thought of 3 days in a row with no nap. Not only is Tai unpleasant to be around when he's tired, but I worry that three days in a row will set some sort of precedent and he'll decide to give up his nap thereafter. Oh, the horror.

But, setting my anxiety aside for a moment, I'm very much looking forward to this trip. Tai is beyond excited because (a) we're going to see dinosaur bones, (b) we're going to the Bronx Zoo, and (c) the hotel has a pool! (I remember when, as a child, I didn't care if we were going to Idaho on vacation, as long as the hotel had a pool).

We'll actually be travelling with Tai's best friend and meeting up with two other buddies from school at the Museum of Natural History. What more could a kid ask for? This trip promises to provide education, entertainment, life-long memories, and (most importantly) fodder for some decent blog posts.
