Keeping up with Banksy: Yankee Stadium

Dear Banksy,

Sorry we couldn't make it last night, but the clue came out too late and too far for us.  But, we made it bright and early today to meet your leopard.


 

Devilz in the Detailz

Baby Ruth?

What's next?

Keeping up with Banksy: 23rd St

Dear Banksy,

Nice to see you again, especially when you're trying to do some good for NYC.  Good luck!

                               
Me n Momz with Banksy's latest

                                
The scene outside of Housing Works... Cray-os

                                
What we're all looking at

Had to start the day out right, so while we waited, we hit up Mandarin pre-school prep for some "DA" circle time...
Me n my lǎoshī

and grabbed my daily coffee & scone while peepin the peeps walking by the shop.

Whut up peeps?

 We even unwound after a long day with a dip in the pool.  Building stamina to keep up the pace in the home stretch.

 Get me in the agua!

Til tomorrow,

Keeping Up with Banksy: Coney Island

Dear Banksy,

Coney Island revisited for us today. Not sure what was up with Momz, but she didn't seem as into it today. I thought it was pretty cool, though, and was happy to have an excuse to ride the train and see go back to Coney Island.

Hey, watch where you're spaying! 

What are all these people looking at?


Getting up close and personal with the work...



Our favorite part was talking to the lovely crossing guards who saw your man pull down the blue tarp.  They were really fun and sweet ladies. We also met a gentleman who congratulated the owner on winning the Lottery. How cool is that! Maybe that's what all the people were there for.

Almost done,

Rambo!

Dear Washington Market Park,

Thanks for a super fun afternoon! It was like a regular day at the park on steroids, what with the decorations and games and candy and MUSCLES!  

Rambo arrives on a cargo train... Welcome to the playground; we it fun and games

Lurking in the shadows

Don't worry, Momz; I'll protect you!

They're right behind me, aren't they?

Spook-tacular!

Dominating the jungle... Jungle gym!

POW

So strong, I stole Momz' heart!

Can't wait til next year,

JYK

Keeping Up with Banksy: Greenpoint

Dear Banksy,

Happy early Halloween. I'm glad we got to see your backup plan, considering I don't read. Momz said that's probably a good thing since it wasn't fit to print, whatever that means... Something about people saying the same thing, but better. Kind of left me confused why you bothered in the first place.  Aren't you busy enough?

Banksy n my Balloon Girl

Run, Banksy, run!

Illicitness is exhausting!



Anyway, we saw this one, too. And dressed up for the occasion.

Ho hum,

JYK

PS We had no idea 9/11 had such a "profound" impact on you

Sit Back n Enjoy the Janz

Dear W Broadway & Reade,

Can't a guy enjoy some R-Janz while eating an apple?




Let's let it be, at least for a while.  I'd like to see it a bit longer on the way to Mandarin class.

K? Thx,

JYK

Coney Island

Dear Luna Park,

What a perfect fall day at the beach!


And for exploring all you have to offer.  Though, I'm sorry to have missed the kids parade.


This guy kept stalking me like a promise. Maybe because I'm still too little for most of the rides.

I'm working on it, clown!

Please oh please let me on the monster truck ride!

Just the guy I need!

Is it just me, or can you see me getting bigger already?

Maybe it's just that hotdog Momz let me try 

Happy Halloween,

JYK

Keeping Up with Banksy: Sunset Park

WDear Banksy,

Thanks for the tip.


Kicked the tires to make sure all iz good before I go.


Off to Coney Island.

Keeping Up with Banksy: Bowery

Dear Banksy,

Abu and Julie joined me again on this one.  It was fun to be out of my 'hood so late in the day.

Confused as ever...


     
READY... SET... GO!--- Huh?
 
After a little dinner and show...


And a check on what Swoon's been up to...


The mood, as well as the view, was much improved.

 
Buhaaa, ha-ha!

Off to bed,

Intrepid Adventurer

Dear Intrepid Air and Space Museum,

Did know how much fun there was to be had aboard your-ship?

Admiral Jacob calling shots
 
M*A*S*H
 
I was psyched to fly a real airplane

Space buttons are AWESOME! You heard that, little girl from Germany?!
 
Are there any seals under there?
 
We got smart about your canteen over lunch: 500 dozen eggs, 1500 chickens, 700 loaves of bread, 5000 lbs of potatoes PER DAY!
 
I hope you had more than just one of these!
 
Out on the deck with airplanes and helicopters
 
The hunt for Red October is ON!

Heading to my post

Now, if I can only remember where I put those nuclear codes...  HA! This ain't no submarine!
 
Ships a'hoy,
