    Tours – Central Park offers free tours that many people do not know about.

    Paddle Around the Lake – You can take a paddle around the lake yourself for a fee or you can let someone else take you on the romantic ride. After your ride dine at the Central Park Boathouse Restaurant for a fare of seafood, salads, and wine.

    Central Park Zoo– In this zoo, you can witness daily feedings of sea lions and penguins, and watch snow monkeys play. Right next to the main zoo is a children’s zoo that will be loved just as much, Tisch Children’s Zoo. You can see pot-bellied pigs and goats here.

    Alice in Wonderland Statue – This statue is meant for children to play and climb on and was dedicated to the park in 1959. There is also the Conservatory Water where you can watch or even sail your own boat on the water.

    Conservatory Garden – This six-acre garden offers three styles (French, Italian, and English) and lots of flowers, fountains, trimmed hedges and walkways.

    Hi, I'm Debi!

    Welcome to my world. I am a 40 something year old mom to a lot of kids and a lot of pets. When I am not busy with the kids, grandkids, or animals, I love to do crafts and read.

    I love to knit and can often be found working on a project.
