New York Day 4

The American Museum of Natural History and lunch in the Park ...
Entrance Hall and ticketing for the American Museum of Natural History 
Still in the Entrance Hall 
Anne with the gorillas! Unfortunately the gorillas looked much better without flash but then you couldn't see Anne! The natural setting for the animals exhibited were brilliantly done and very realistic 
Anne with a group of African elephants 
Anne with an Indian elephant
The little elephant at bottom left is to the same scale as the dinosaur behind Anne and Terri 
Not sure what I was standing next to!
Resting the legs for a few minutes 
One of the original kangaroos would you believe? 
A huge variety of all shapes and sizes of dinosaur skeletons 
This was a display of Biodiversity! 
A well earned takeaway lunch in Central Park 
Boating on "The Lake" in Central Park 

More boats and the Bow Bridge in the distance
The Bethesda Terrace Fountain (Anne is centre, towards the bottom of the photo) 
Some black performers/dancers in the Park that we watched for a few minutes
They were quite funny and very friendly! 
Robert Burns statue as we getting to the exit of Central Park. Unfortunately we had to head off back to the Hotel and start packing for our train trip to Washington first thing tomorrow morning!
