Day 2 - Leila

I think my most favorite part of today was going to Central Park. I can’t believe how gorgeous and preserved the nature is there! There were just SO many trees, and there were little tunnels that looked like they were straight out of a fairytale. It was so magical, I felt so at ease when we were walking through there. All of the children playing and laughing and running on the numerous playgrounds scattered around the park. It REALLY was just like from the movies, only SOOOO much better! We went and saw “The Mayor” And the “Imagine” circle of peace. There were a lot of flowers and photos of John Lennon on the circle too, and “The Mayor” told us a little bit of history on the construction of Strawberry Fields (a section of the park). I’m kind of sad though that we will be leaving New York tomorrow though, but I’m just reminding myself that we will be RETURNING to New York on Wednesday! More to come later!
