What a fun place for kids (and adults too).   During our week vacation in the Poconos, we drove down to Easton Pennsylvania to visit Crayola Factory.   Totally worth the trip.  Good Time!!!

For the next few days, I’m gonna be posting some pictures from last year that I never got to show you.  Actually my wife didn’t even get to see them yet.  heheh!  So right now, I am processing them.     I guess it’s better late then never huh!?  hahaha!

If you were following me on Twitter and Facebook last summer, you would remember that I drove my family to Georgia so she and Dylan can spend the month of July with her family while the hubby (me) was back in New York working, paying the bills.  You would think I would have all the time in the world to hang out with my friends.  Well not really….  cuz my car was in Georgia.   Delta was nice enough to take me home, of course I had to drop a few bills for it..

I headed back to GA first week of August, but I didnt want my vacation to be just driving up and down. Instead of driving on I-85 and I-95 back home.  We decided to take a different route and do some sightseeing.

Driving up and down Shenandoah National Park was totally an amazing experience.  We even got to see a black bear off the road.   Too bad I only had the 16-35L with me, so i wasn’t able to snap a shot .   We did get to visit some amazing places while in Shenandoah.  Places like Shenandoah Caverns;  American Celebration on Parade; The Yellow Barn and the Virginia Safari Park which is located in Natural Bridge, Virginia.    The Safari park was a HUGE hit, especially for Dylan.  He really enjoyed it.

Enough reading, time to see some images from the trip….  please be patient if the images is still loading on your system.  There are 40 images total.

It’s so great to spend the time with the family away from the city you live and work at everyday.    As I mentioned in my previous post last week, its my wife first time visiting the town and since I haven’t been there over 10 yrs, everything is new to me.    We had an awesome time just to see the city and its history.   The city is so much cleaner comparing to New York City.   hahaha!

Just to be clear, the t-shirt my son is wearing is NOT  (i repeat), is NOT a Boston Red Sox T-shirt…  it’s a concert T-shirt of Phish, who recently perform in Fenway Park.   Thanks Jill & Ryan for the T-shirt.    

Please check out the photo slideshow I’ve put together….  and you get to see Dylan’s 1st time on a Merry Go Round.  hehehe.   Thanks!! 

Its been ten years since I visited Boston. So many things have changed since. But one thing haven’t change is the history, the historical landmarks.. and of course the FOOD.

This past Labor Day weekend, we decided to head up to Boston. It was Amanda first visit and of course Dylan too. We had a great time. The weather was just perfect. Great City, Great Clam Chowder, Great Blue Points Oysters, Tasty beer and yummy lobster. We even got to visit Amanda’s old friend and her family who live just outside of Boston. Good Time!!!!!

Here’s some pics I like to share.. Will have some more later this week. maybe a slideshow or something. heheh! Enjoy it!!!

Thank you!!!

We have a wedding to attend this weekend in Georgia. Normally we drive down here from New York (16 to 18 hrs drive). But because I won two free round trip airfare last christmas from my company, we decided to use it for this trip. Plus with the baby and Amanda being at a new school this year (only asked for one day off). We just figure it would be wise to use it.

Because we flied on the day of 9/11, the flight was very empty. We got to the airport 4 hours early, because I wanted to get a good parking spot in Long Term Parking at LGA, and because we had so much to carry going to security, we didnt want any delay and rush to catch our flight. Unlike JetBlue in JFK, there were no Free Internet access at the American Airline terminal or gate. Since we had so many hours to wait, we decided to pay for it. $9.95 a month for the 1st three month, then $24 thereafter. Note to self, need to cancel after the month is over. It was a very good flight. Dylan did fuss a little, but thats because he was sleepy, but wanted to see everything around him. hehe. We arrived in Atlanta about 9:40pm. Pickup the rental car and drove to our Hotel in Stone Mountain. …woohoo! Free internet at the Hotel.

Friday morning we rush to Walmart to get some things for the Bridal Shower that my wife is in change of (Matron of Honor). After I dropped her off at the Country Club, I met up with my Father in Law and headed back to the hotel, so he can spent some grandpa time with Dylan. Here’s something funny… We were hungry, so we headed to Wendy’s for some food. When it was time to pay for the food, I told my father in law, “I got it Dad”. The cashier at Wendy looked at me and said, “did you say Dad?” My replied, “yes”. She said, “seriously?” I said, “yes seriously” LOL then I said, “its my father in law” LOL. I guess she didnt noticed my chinese redneck or something. HAHAHAH!!

That evening, we had the rehearsal at the Methodist Church in Snellvile, GA. Everyone were saying how cute & handsome Dylan is, and that the combination between Amanda and myself really did an awesome job with him. hehehe! I did went up to introduce myself to Mandy & Justin’s wedding photographer, Jared Baker, just so he know who I am. Very nice guy. The Church doesnt allow Flash Photography at all. heheh! I hate that. I guess it is my 1st test to see how I can do without a flash in a church. I didnt bring any of my fast lense. Only have my 24-105 with me on this trip. Guess the ISO will have to be increase to 800 or 1600… and must shoot in RAW. we will see what happen. Its gonna be hard to do much when Dylan will be with me. After the rehearsal, we headed to the Bride’s mother place for dinner – Mexican food. YUM YUM!!!!! Later I did give my business card to Jared, just so he has my information, and maybe we can network together and expand our business and industry even wider. Jared is actually a personal friend of the Groom (Justin).

Well today is the wedding day and my wife is about to head over to the Bride’s place so they all can get ready to do their girlie thing. The Bride (Mandy) is my wife best friend. They go way back to their college’s year at University of Georgia (Bulldogs). Actually Mandy was the Maid of Honor on our wedding. hehehe! well time to get myself ready so I can drive her over. Hopefully I will get some awesome pictures today..

We went on our first family getaway for the 4th of July weekend to Washington D.C. It was a great trip. We even took our dog Meko with us. Dylan had an awesome time. And for the most part it wasn’t too bad travelling with him at all. Here are some shots I took. Didn’t get to see too much stuff. For sure we will be visit there again.

We drove down to Viriginia to hang out with my in laws…. and they drove up from Georgia.
