caught the ferry to lower Manhatten.
We saw the Statue of Liberty and of coarse
the beautiful New York City skyline.
One of the first things we did was find Canal Street where all of the street venders are so we could buy $1000 look alike Dolce Gabana purses for 20 bucks.
(I'm not sure if this guy is a purse salesman or a plumber! Sorry for the view!)
This is Wall street
and the New York Stock Exchange.
This is as close as we got to the Empire State building but I thought that this was a cool view of it.
Then we jumped on the subway
and headed uptown. Our first stop . . .
. . . Central Park.
It was really pretty and huge. There were so many people enjoying the beautiful park and weather.
I loved it. This one one of my favorite parts of NYC.
A few of the other things we saw~
Break dancers in the park -
Trump Tower -
Where they film David Lettermen (would have liked to go to a show but didn't have time)
The Hello Deli (wanted to eat there but it had just closed for the day.)
And of course - Times Square.
I couldn't believe how many people there were. As the day went on the streets got more. . .
and more . . .
and MORE crowded. It was crazy!
Of coarse we had to try New York Style pizza (it was yummy)
And we finished off the day with the best cheese cake around. (I'm not sure who that couple is next to Hollie and Cam but they enjoyed getting their picture taken!)
There is way to much to see in New York City in just one day so I hope that I can go back some day and spend more time. But we had a blast and it was a great experience visiting the BIG APPLE.
Stay tuned for our next stop - Washinton D.C.
