The leaves were just starting to change and it was so beautiful!
Leaving Manhattan on the ferry to Liberty Island and Ellis Island.
Me and Lady Liberty
Us enjoying our audio tours on Liberty Island. I strongly recommend audio tours. They are awesome! You don't have to be with a large group and go as fast or as slow as you like. Both Ellis Island and Liberty Island have the most interesting history.

Rockefeller Center. I wanted to go ice skating, but unfortunately I didn't have socks on. :(
We took a horse drawn carriage through Central Park. This was the craziest experience of the entire trip. We were at a red light and this big huge SUV totally rear ends us. How does that happen? Our driver, who looked exactly lke the old trainer guy from Rocky, flips out. Starts screaming at the guy to pull over. The guy does and is very nice and apologized and started giving him is info. Our guy is still flipping out and then calls him a racial slur. Nice. The nice guy flips out and starts screaming at him and chasing him around the carriage. It was like a scene from a movie. The guy got back in his car and we continued on with our carriage ride. It was crazy!
We had yummy frozen hot chocolate at Serendipity.
Us in the middle of Time Square. It was so nuts, but so awesome at the same time!
The lobby of the Empire State Building. This is as close as we got. It was a 2 hour wait and $20 a person to go up. We didn't have much time in New York, so we opted to continue on discovering the city.
Grand Central Terminal. This was such a beautiful building. It is so impressive how many people come through here everyday!
We had a very nice dinner on Brandon's company in Michael Jordan's Steakhouse. It is located inside Grand Central Terminal. It was so elegant and the food was incredible!

SO FUN! I'm glad you were able to go visit! I love New York too, such a fun place to visit! You got a lot in too!
That looks like it was the best kind of get-away. I love those spur of the moment opportunities, even if you don't get all the time you would like to have. It sure does force you to take advantage of the moment. It is very romantic! I would LOVE to go to NY.
Way fun! I am so sad I couldn't go with you tonight. I miss hanging out with the girls. We will have to do again sometime. Hey, isn't your b-day coming up next month? We will have to get together than.
Oh, I am green with envy! It looks like a fun trip! You guys are adorable together. I have always wanted to try a frozen hot chocolate... one day.
I love New york too. Hopefully Josh and I will be able to go one day! That is hilarious about the carriage accident , what are the chances?! Glad you had fun!
