Weekend in the City....NYC!

After an unexpected snow storm caused our trip to Seattle to be canceled, we decided to take the opportunity and visit New York City!  I still cannot believe we did it because it is never like me to do something this spontaneous without taking weeks to plan and plan again!  I must admit - it felt great!  We had a fabulous time!  


It was cold and snowed our first day in the city.  The weather did not slow us down at all.  You will notice how bundled we are in the pictures.  We did all of the tourist things to do and enjoyed every minute.  We saw the Broadway show, "Rock of Ages"!  It was so entertaining and fun to watch.  


At the end of the trip, we decided that a few days in the city was enough.  We were ready to be back in the South!  :) 


P.S.  You will see that I am starting to look very "preggo" in these pics!  17 weeks!  :)

Parking!  I would really be in trouble! :)

Central Park 

Our tour of Central Park.  It was so cold and snow covered the paths, so we took the bike tour.  We learned a lot of interesting facts about the park.

Awesome view of NYC!

Times Square

911 Memorial Welcome Center

It is hard to see, but this is a very neat water fall/fountain that we saw walking down the street.  

Rockefeller Center

New York Public Library - It is gorgeous!

Inside the library.  Dan would not let me take his picture.  He said no one would believe he was in the library.  Well I promise he was there!  :)

Getting ready to leave the hotel for dinner and a Broadway show!

Dinner was delicious at the Bourbon Street Restaurant on Restaurant Row (46th Street)

The show was unbelievable!!!  We loved it!

Our last day!  We made one more visit to Central Park.  This time it was warmer and sunny!
