New York

We just got back from New York last night. It was such an awesome trip but we are happy to be back home. We missed our little Petey and our bed. I have a bajillion pictures so here we go...

On the Boardwalk. It was really windy...


On a Pier looking at Coney Island and the Boardwalk


The Charging Bull, like on Hitch!

At an Italian restaurant in Little Italy. The worst service EVER! We almost dined and ditched.


Disney Store on 5th Ave. The things I make Ben do. haha


Our sweet set up. Studio apartment in upper east Manhattan


Aquarium

New York Stock Exchange on Sunday

Beautiful Trinity Church. Alexander Hamilton buried just outside in cemetery

On top of the Empire State Building. Amy and Brig have better pics... will post later


Ground Zero
Ferry to Statue of Liberty and Ellis Island. Manhattan in back.

Hanging out on the Ferry

The Ghostbusters Firehouse!!

The "Mayor of Central Park" started the running trend around the Jaquelyn Kennedy Pond. He is 93 now. Pretty cool to see him!

The new crispy mint m&m's are sooo good!

Checkout the guy in his speedo sunbathing in Central Park.

The Boathouse in Central Park. Like on 27 dresses. There were cute turtles swimming around in the pond and lots of little row boats. Pretty cool.

About the speedo guy in Central Park, you see, New Yorkers are on a lot of levels, more open minded about a half naked man. As New York have not, unlike most of the rest of the country, have dumbed down since the 1980s.
