The kiddos and I just got back from a trip to New York. The heat outside was getting to them so we rallied around the computer and went on a vacation.
I was expecting a state-of-the-art video and instead, discovered the video to be my kinda real.
The video is taken from the first-person perspective and reminds me so much of something I would take myself.
It was like watching a playback of our day in New York.
I loved this angle as it made it more “real” for me and the children.

The Divine Miss M was surprised to see that New York looked a lot like where we live (walking through the park).
She was enchanted by the sounds and how similar and yet different our hometown is from New York.
Li’l Man wants to go to the Central Park Amusement Park because every ride there is on his must-do-this-summer list!
This trip won’t cost a dime, bring the kiddos in from the heat, or just take a virtual vacation from your desk and begin the journey of New York!
