After literally running to make the train (due to lack of parking spaces/ lack of parking attendant to pay) we slid right between those about to shut doors, and began getting excited for our next three days in the Big Apple! We got off in Grand Central and looked up at the new LED lights that represent stars in the constellation on the ceiling. We walked to Andrew's work (Seth looked like an Ozarks Kid...which a huge backpacking bag on his back....I think he took a few people out!) to store our luggage for a day! Andrew was an incredible host, he really made our trip so easy and enjoyable!!
Took the subway to the Natural History Museum, Seth was hungry so he stopped at a cart vendor and got Lamb on rice....pretty good!
Crazy weird Monkey....I think it looks like my little brother....Here is a shout out to you Marcus!!! Love you too!!! haha!
This museum that we are in is the museum from the movie "Night in the Museum"
This is the realtive to the Grizzly, the Brown Bear....it is bigger but not nearly as aggressive!
JESSI!!!!!! PUMAS, COUGARS, MOUNTAIN LIONS....OH MY!!!!
I wish I had this collection when I teach Biodiversity to my future Biology Students!!!!!
Picture this crazy huge crab nipping at your toes.....it freaked me out!
I am in my rainforest! SAVE THE RAINFORESTS!!!
Waiting for Andrew at Columbus Circle...This is one of Andrew's favorite spots in the city.
Yes....he is too sweet!
So for all who know Andrew...you all know that his vocabulary is as vast as the stars in the sky (That is some mild Andrew lingo). Anyway...Josh Agee guess who won??? I was so excited to beat Mr. Andrew at Scrabble, it should be a huge compliment to him!! Granted....he had a word on there that I thought was spanish, but it was apart of the English language and I had some good three-to-four letter words...haha! He might have just let me win due to it was my birthday week, but I will take it as a great present!
This is my Hillbilly husband in the big city, and yes those are my boots strapped to the outside...just classic!!
We walked across the Brooklyn Bridge, we were on our way to South Seaport to get Broadway tickets half off!
South Seaport
Ray's Pizza in the Italian District....Thanks Jeremy for the advice to go there....it was great!
Chinatown...I got to put to work my bartering skills I just learned at our Dave Ramsey class! I got some scarves and headbands!
CHINATOWN!
GETTO
MARY POPPINS! It was practically perfect (for all of you who have seen the show!) Seth and I absolutely loved this show, she were so impressed and entertained! We got great seats...just seven rows back! We saw the actors spit and sweat....it was awesome!!! Perfect Birthday Present!
We are on the subway back to Brooklyn...our tummies told us we needed a piece of cheesecake on Times Square before we went back to Andrew's apartment, but our feet were telling us a different story...tummy won out on that debate!
Yes, I have fallen in love with Eggnog Lattes from Starbucks!
TOP OF THE ROCK! We went to the top of the Rockefeller tower and got a beautiful view of the sunsetting over the city! It was breathtaking to see all those lights! It was like Christmas!!!
Empire State Building
