Went to have a picnic in Central Park NYC. It was a friend's bucket list item. We live in NJ about 1 hour from the city limits. It took over 1 1/2 hours for us to get from the tunnel to Central Park! Once we parked in a garage ( $65.00 ) we walked to the park which was only 1 block away. It was of course crowded but, right when we entered we could see all the life activities going on. We spread our blanket under a tree near a Jazz group playing great music. We could hear other music playing throughout the park. Our little spot actually felt private. We had an amazing picnic.
We finished the picnic and walked through the park some. So many activities and mini parks within the park. The park was clean and extremely enjoyable. You will always see and find something interesting in Central Park...... definitely worth the trip and expense.
