14. Central Park


Since the weather is supposed to be nice for the next few days, maybe it is time to head over to Central Park.  Everyone in the world knows about Central, but it can be hard to think of something to do.  Feel free to add some ideas.
1.       Go for a walk.  After being dormant for so long, a simple walk may be just the thing.  You can walk and breath the fresh air.  This can be a great way to reduce stress.
2.       Taking the family, or just someone you care about, for a picnic is also a nice (free) way to spend your day.
3.       Central Park is huge, 843 acres, you could spend your day exploring the park.  You are bound to find something of interest.
4.       Dine in style.  You can visit the Boathouse Restaurant or the Tavern on the Green to get some grub.
5.       If it is a romantic occasion, take a carriage ride.
6.       Take a gondola ride.  Just don’t fall in, the water is still pretty cold.
7.       Check out the Alice in Wonderland statue, then go see the movie after you leave central park.
8.       During the summer, check out Shakespeare in the park.
9.       Don’t forget the Central Park Zoo.
10.   Go ice skating in the winter.
We are stopping the list at ten but there are hundreds of things that you can do in Central Park.  You just need to figure out which one is best for you.
