We hit a fancy Greek restaurant called Molyvos. It was excellent. I had the moussaka, Jana had a Greek salad, and Zola had about 4 pieces of bread. Zola seems pretty happy to be up after bedtime. Mont and Kristy McNeil (behind Z. on the left and right) made it a fun night all around.
We stopped for a quick photo in front of the Prometheus statue at the Rockefeller Center.
Radio City Music Hall.
Kim, Rhett, Zola, and Jana hanging out on the steps to the Metropolitan Museum of Art.
The subway is lots of fun. This guy with a scary look on his face is just part of the experience.
The Brooklyn Bridge is over a mile long and took 13 years to build (1870 - 1883). Zola didn't even bother waking up to look at the skyline.
Chinatown.
Dim Sum for lunch at Dim Sum Go Go. Yum. Zola ate like a champ, but she needs some work on her chopsticks techniques. [Those are lotus leaves on the plate that the rice was wrapped in. It's tasty.]
Little Italy with Mont, Jana, and Kim. There was a festival going on just like the one in Godfather II, when Vito shoots Fanucci. We had a canoli and some gelato and enjoyed Little Italy's version of the Grange Fair.
Here's a little video we shot of Zola in the McNeils' hotel room. She loves the baby in the mirror. If you listen to the audio, you can hear Rhett and Kim plotting a fraud scheme that, for security purposes, we can only refer to as "Operation Free Chocolate Chip Cookies." Kim and Rhett, you both know "THOSE COOKIES ARE FOR LUNCHES!!!!!!!"
A special thank you to Mont and Kristy McNeil, who shared their weekend with us, and especially with Zola. Mont is a really good peek-a-boo player (it only took him 7 minutes to learn! What mental acumen!)
And Zola loved having Kristy hold her.
These guys are going to be great grandparents.

Hi Zola! It looks like you create a spectacle wherever you go. Probably because you're the cutest baby ever. I love your pictures too. You're so photogenic! I especially love the pictures of you by yourself. Always a huge hit at our house.
HOW FUN! YOu guys are always doing awesome stuff. Oh, by the way I tagged you. (see our blog.) have a great day!
Wow! Zola is the luckiest kid ever! You are always off doing fun things! She is adorable. Especially in her cutest black sneakers!
Ah! I keep forgetting! That last comment was Ginger. And yes my comment was redundant after reading Allison's. Sorry!
Yes, I couldn't help but notice the cool shoes too...
Oh yes, we love the shoes, and are trying to get all the use we can before her feet get too big. It's not like she's wearing them out with all her walking. Patty Ray gave those shoes to Zola. We posted a little picture awhile back.
And Ginger, it's so good to hear from you. No comment is redundant.
Despite the cute pic's of Z-Rae, Dirk ruined this post by mentioning MOUSSAKA...all I could think of was this...http://video.aol.com/partner/hulu/saturday-night-live-patio-lovers/2ON5hJesYxS6q0fONU-UahepnLXublEF
