New York, New York!
We LOVE the big apple!!
Claire had her first airplane ride- she did lovely and was very popular on the flight, entertaining everyone around us. Who can pass up those cheeks and that little munchie face?
We went back east to visit Tami and her cute family in D.C.. Claire got to spend a couple of days with Tami and her cousins so Bruce and I could venture to NYC sans bebe.
It was so fun! I love that city! We saw the sites in a whirlwind and walked our tails off, or at least a partial amount of the calories we consumed!
mmm... NY cheesecake (thanks to the food network for highlighting Junior's famous cheesecake, and yes, it was as good as they say), sushi, pizza, hot dogs, pastries, magnolia bakery....
isn't traveling all about the food?!
yes please!
The highlight was going to the Lion King. It was amazing!! AMAZING.
After much shopping around we scored some killer orchestra seats and were so close to the stage. Like, I made contact with a gazelle and the cheetah. We felt like they were singing to us, I literally saw them spitting as they talked and sweating under the lights.
This proved to be one of our favorite pictures of the trip:
We asked a cute little lady to take it. Turned out she was from somewhere else and didn't understand English. She looked slightly confused, pointed the camera towards us without looking through the screen and shot the pic, then handed our camera back without ever saying a word. We were laughing so hard.
I love the architecture and all the beautiful details in New York.
the library:
St. Patrick's cathedral:
Brooklyn Bridge:
Manhattan bridge to the left, Brooklyn on the right:
Atlas:
Hot dogs on Coney Island:
can you believe those records?!!!
Male Record:68
Female Record: 41
insane...and disgusting.
luckily, they had instructions for choking posted in the restaurant.
