The City that doesn't Sleep!

Jake and I had a splendid time in New York. This is a photo from our hotel room window, looking down onto Time Square, which was always a buzz.

We took the double decker bus tour and couldn't get enough of all the amazing old buildings, the texture was stunning.

We took a stroll through Central Park, where I could live in a tent by the way, it is soooooooo beautiful.

And check out my mad skills, as a set the timer on my camera and grabbed this shot. Hey, a girls gotta do, what a girls gotta do to get a cute picture of her and her hubby.

We didn't want to miss a thing, so here is the Empire Sate Building.

And we took the boat over to Ellis Island.

One thing about New York, I feel like they do have more American Pride. They might be busy in the hussle and bussle, but they are really nice people who are proud to be American. I respect that...and hope everyone exercises their right to vote next month.

All in all, it was exhausting. There was so much to see and to do. We went to the Natural History Museum, where I decided I could homeschool my kids if we just lived inside of the museum. We went to New Jersey, just to get a nice view of Manhattan. We had New York style pizza, ate the most ridiculously huge sandwich at Carnegie Deli. We did the double decker bus, took a cab, rode on the subway, even the one that goes underneath the ocean....ahhhhh. We visited the site of the WTC, but there wasn't much to see but new construction going on...which was really nice. We walked across the Brooklyn Bridge, took a bike cab through Central Park, saw Phantom of the Opera, and ....I can't remember. I only took like 500 pictures, 50 of my favs which I put on Facebook. So feel free to check them out. The best part of it all, was that by the end, I really did miss my kids, all 4 of 'em!
