Well there is some saying about “paved with good intentions” that I think I have heard somewhere. Mom and dad got off to a good start attempting to go bike riding. Picked a park that had nothing but paved roads, got a nice sunny day, had a top of the line baby seat professionally installed and even had me in a good mood. However, no helmets are made for babies under 1 year so they were out of luck. We had to settle instead for a quick picnic on the grass and a 45 minute walk past the Statue of Liberty and Ellis island. Good enough but not quite the ride they were hoping for. Unlucky. Oh well, it was cool anyway. Dad found one of the only shaded areas in the whole park to eat under. It was pretty warm otherwise. Dad was psyched that he spent forever packing up the car, bikes and rack etc just to do nothing. How great is that.
