The only museum we enjoyed - Museum of the Moving Image
This is probably the first and the last museum we enjoyed going to. Green screen video immersion.
Actually we also liked Museum of the City of New York
Ok maybe we also like the museum of New York City on the Upper East Side. Rachel first made Andre go after Timmy and Emily’s wedding since they had some doll houses on display. They also have a really well done exhibit of the history of NYC. They focus on smaller exhibits so there’s no museum fatigue!
Walk and eat all around Astoria
Check out Andre's old neighborhood - 30th Avenue & Ditmars Avenue
Get Filipino Food in Woodside, Queens
Filipino Kamayan feast at Ihawan and maybe also SriPraPhai for some really good Thai food.
Coney Island Beach & Boardwalk
Eat a Mexican corn on the cob and a shish kabob from the street cart lady
BEST cherry blossom we saw ever - Branch Brook Park
Best Cherry blossom we have found - right in Newark, NJ.
Bike around wherever you find bikes!
We fell in love with so many cities while biking around!
