I Love New York!




Well I just got back from a four day trip to the Big Apple. It was absolutely amazing! It was very very cold outside, but I loved it anyways! Even got a shirt that says it. Definately not enough time in one day. So many things I wanted to do that I just didnt have time for. The first day was great Tanis, Gary, Todd and I went walking around the city. Our hotel was on Broadway so it was great location to everything! We found a great outdoor skating rink with a Canadian Cafe where we sat outside and had some lunch and martinis under the heatlamps while they played Christmas Music. It was perfect!! We later walked to 34th street got our picture with Santa at Macys and did a bit of shopping. Later that night saw the Broadway show Wicked!! Have wanted to see this forever and it was spectacular! The real story of the Witches from the Wizard of Oz. Later that night we all went for a little dinner near Times Square.



More pictures to come.....

Day 2 in the City

On the Second day we took a trolley tour uptown New York, it was great because we sat at the top and the views were great! Also very cold, my legs were numb by the end of it. We went to Serendipity for lunch and then did some shopping on 5th Avenue! This bottle of Juicy Couture Perfume was so big it cost $3000!



Later we went to Rockefeller center home of the world famous Christmas tree! It was beautiful! For Tanis's Birthday we got dressed up and went out for dinner. Wish I remember what the restaurant was called. Happy Birthday Tanis!!


Day 3 in the City

We went to the top of the Empire State Building! The views of the City were amazing! You could see all of Manhattan, Statten Island, and New Jersey. It was alot to take in but well worth the wait! After we took a cab to China town and Canal street for some shopping - My favorite part!

Central Park

The one thing I really wanted to do during this trip to New York was go Ice Skating in Central Park. So on the last day we woke up really early, got all packed up and took a short cab to Wollman Rink in Central Park (from the film Serendipity). It was an absolutely beautiful day, cold and crisp but very sunny! We all rented skates and drank hot chocolate. It was so much fun, and I never wanted this day to end. We then walked around Central Park and watched the carriages go by. It was perfect!
