On Saturday, we headed out to the city to enjoy the day in Central Park. Central Park is a place that is sooo close, but we do not go there often enough. It was a great and relaxing day in the middle of the hustle of New York City.
We started off with a picnic…
We got sandwiches from a little deli called Hana next to the subway in Brooklyn. I found the deli on Yelp and the reviews sold me. People called the deli the best sandwiches in NYC, so I knew I had to try it. All the sandwiches have really funny names – mine was called the Crazy Bitch and was so so so so good. I don’t remember all the things that were on it, but it did have prosciutto, avocado and alfalfa sprouts. We also got a seaweed salad to share and some chips and guac to munch on.
Munchkin fell asleep before we got to the park, so he enjoyed a nap while Tommy and I relaxed.
Soon the little man was awake, and it was time to get moving. We started off by playing ball. We ran up and down the hill a few times and saw lots of horseys going by.
We had some ice cream and got a little messy so we needed a wardrobe change.
We rode the carousel.
After riding the horseys, we headed over to the playground and played in the sand.
It was an awesome day and I can’t wait to go back. We were all surprised how fun and relaxing spending a day in the city could be!
What did you do this weekend?
Precious! A summer picnic is on my must do list, well, this summer. Hope you enjoyed your day!

Thanks! We had a blast. I\’ve been wanting to picnic in Central Park since high school, so it was perfect!
That picnic looks like so much fun! 🙂 I’ve always wanted to have a picnic in Central Park. It’s like the movies.

It really was like the movies. Super relaxing and fun!
Kyle had one of those spongebob popciciles the other day that he got from the ice cream truck. I had never even seen them before, but apparently they have been around for years! DOH! How fun to picnic in Central Park!

Ahh, I was in Central Park yesterday — we missed each other by a day! A friend and I went up to NYC for a quick overnight trip — the park and Times Square yesterday, SoHo today. I could have done without the humidity and heat, but it was still a lovely time! Glad to hear your picnic was great, as well:)

Ahh! Small world! It would\’ve been too funny if we ran into each other! The heat and humidity are killer!
