I knew that;-) We've been to the Brooklyn museum, and seen several of the special exhibitions they've had. We also like the zoo, and that Dutch house they have as well across the street in Prospect Park. Matter of fact, I like Prospect Park itself, with the little bridges, and tunnels and nice rolling pathways and marshy areas and stuff.
But the kids like the Botanic Gardens, so we've gone there the last few times. Peaceful. Noone for the Excitable Boy to go ballistic over. The rose garden. The Cherry tree esplanade. The Japanese temperate, and desert plants.
maxine, who may opt for the museum if the temperatures are in the upper 80's tomorrow.
