This past weekend, Isaac and I went to NYC to see Isaac's brother Josh and his wife Nikki and to do some sightseeing. We stayed in Midtown Manhattan a few blocks from Josh and Nikki at the Jolly Hotel...which wasn't so jolly, but the price was right! Friday night we went out for New York Pizza and then to the Empire State building to see the city all lit up.
The entrance to Grand Central Station...the inside didn't look like it does in the movies.

On Saturday, we met up with Nikki in the subway and went down to the Financial District to meet Josh who was waiting in line for half-price Broadway tickets. After our tickets were purchased, we went on a boat tour of the NYC skyline and the Statue of Liberty. We headed to Chinatown next for some authentic Chinese food and some imposter purses. 
Isaac is a magnet for Italian Ice!
In front of the New York Stock Exchange.

Our Lady Liberty...did you know that the creator gave her his mom's face and his wife-to-be's body?
Our first show on Broadway...and hopefully not our last!
We had 3rd row seats...at times I felt like we were at a strip joint...the actors don't wear much clothing in this show! Next time we might see a Disney show instead...
Times Square after the show. We went to The View restuarant on top of the Marriot in Times Square for dessert. This restuarant rotated so that all the guests could see all of the city at night. The dessert buffet was awesome and worth every penny!
We are hoping to go back to NYC next year before Josh and Nikki move away to wherever the Navy takes them. It was a really fun, fast trip. I don't think I would be happy living there...I enjoy my space and my backyard too much! 
Love the photo's of NYC. Would love to see photo's of the imposter bags.
