Our weekend

Mo and I spent the weekend getting more acquainted with Brooklyn. On Saturday, M2 and the boys joined us for a fun day at Prospect Park. We enjoyed the Prospect Park Zoo - a small but well-maintained zoo as well as a playground that kept the boys entertained for quite a while. From there, we took the subway back to Dumbo and the Brooklyn Bridge Park. It was a very full day and the boys were suitably wiped out.

On Sunday, Mo and I spent a couple of hours down at Coney Island and Brighton Beach - our first trip there. I had the obligatory Nathan's hot dog and spent a little while in the batting cage - for which I payed dearly later. It was a very warm day and we were sans sunscreen - ouch. Walking into Brighton Beach was quite a cultural event - all of sudden, everyone was speaking Russian. We'll have to go back and eat at one of the waterside restaraunts.

We can't wait to share these experiences with our child.
