Bannack posing as Puff the Magic Dragon!
The wildly unthemed costume display of the Taleff O'Casey's. The dragon, the hotdog, and the tightrope walkers!

Belmont Park or Bryant Park?
Today I decided that Bannack should do something active with horses. Since Uncle Kev left Hotel Taleff O'Casey Bannack requests (at least daily), to watch horse videos on youtube. He plops himself in front of a computer, points, and demands, "horsies!"
In reading about free stuff to do with kids in NY, I found two horse-related options. We could either go to Belmont Park and watch the race horses warm up or ride one of NY's many carousels. I was leaning toward the live horses at Belmont, but their kid-horse-breakfast special ended last month. Dang! We were left with the carousel.
This was Bannack's first carousel ride (and we already had one incident on a whirly-gig... ask Chris) so we chose Bryant Park's Le Carrousel: "This petit, European-style merry-go-round features a menagerie of animals in addition to horses. It spins very slowly to French cabaret music, making it ideal for younger children."

Choosing his horse and preparing for the ride...
Despite the moment of fear, he recovered quickly and wanted to ride again.
